Director
About the Fella
I am a Director/self-shooting PD based in London. I’ve shot and/or directed for all of the major UK broadcasters, most recently for The Last Leg (C4), Stand up to Cancer (C4) and Question Team (Dave), as well as brands like Compare the Market, McLaren and Ancestry.
I specialise in Directing comedy, bringing a strong aesthetic while still ’avin a laugh!
I have my own Sony A7Sii kit with lenses, lights, tripod + sound kit.
