"The Big Fish" is my latest short film, and my first to be produced at University. In this project, I worked on a stricter role in Cinematography / Camera Operating. I thoroughly enjoyed making this film as we turned out to be a fantastic production team.
Myself and my new flatmate signed up to a local film competition. We teamed up with a group of strangers with experience in the film & media industry, and together we wrote, filmed, and edited this 3-minute short.
"Recovery" is the short film I produced for my final college project. This film has been labelled as a perfect representation of my strengths and weaknesses as a filmmaker. The weaknesses of this film revolves around it's lack of story elements such as backstory, however my ability to execute this idea through direction, mood and tone has been highly praised.
I was thrilled to win 'Best short film' at my college awards for this project last year. I am studying Creative Media as an extended diploma at Witney and Abingdon college. Having created some quite moody pieces I chose to make this Rom Com, for my independent project. I wanted to show that I can come up with a diverse range of ideas. I designed the concept, scripted, directed and edited this piece and I feel it helped me develop my leadership skills as well.
We had a lot of fun putting this film together at college. It was our first group project and we rotated roles throughout - I didn't get an acting role but if you look carefully that's me posting the letter through the door.
This VT introduces a rising football star who's on a rocket ship to superstardom. I directed, edited and was the cinematographer on this piece and it formed part of a group multi-camera project.
Also part of our multi-camera project, this VT introduces a Love Island star who's embarking on a new journey into fashion. I was cinematographer on this shoot.
Yet another project set in the woods. This group task was in response to our tutor's brief to create an dramatic opening scene with a melancholic tone.
I took the role of cinematographer on this project which was directed by a friend of mine at college. I enjoyed the factual approach to this project. The video was made to be a tool for the local band to promote their new album.
This music video was my first independent project at college. I was highly praised by my tutors for my ability to set a mood, which was my main intention for the idea. I chose this song because men's mental health is important to me. From a technical viewpoint the project focused on lip-syncing and colour grading in the edit.

This was my college induction project and my first production team experience. We all took a turn at the cinematography and created individual edits.
