here's some more about my career so far...
as a director i’ve worked through the production company independent, and also independently, as i do currently
i’ve made films for volkswagen, ikea, renault, sony, etihad, jameson and many more great brands, working with agencies like adamandeveDDB, mother, saatchi, publicis, droga 5, cheil and many more
before that i was in the role of 'ed of stuff' for saatchi london where i produced the first two multi-award winning t-mobile event-ad’s... 'dance' at liverpool street station and 'singalong' at trafalgar square which have clocked up more than 50 million hits online. there i also produced and co-directed/directed three films for golf's european tour working with their own broadcast crew. they also won awards. i worked with katy perry for t-mobile europe (deutsch telekom) on a campaign for eight countries which also included us making her music video for 'firework' which won mtv music video of the year. (250 fans from the 8 countries appeared in the video as part of the life's for sharing campaign. the ad campaign documented that part)
the only other agency i worked within is mother london, on a number of exciting projects including heading up the production of the live edinburgh festival show 'pot noodle the musical' for unilever, which made national news and enjoyed packed houses at the fringe festival
prior to all this i've been a production company runner, p.a., production manager, producer and took over the production company godman for three years. i’ve also executive produced for great directors at companies like blink productions
i've learned on the job having worked in production as long as i can remember. additionally i’ve taken the 'directing the actor' course at n.y.u. tisch school of the arts, and a screenwriting course at st martins
i started the one-super-8-cartridge-no-editing short film competition, straight 8 and for the last few years have also had a hand in jameson whiskey’s branded short film competition: jameson first shot
the thread is that i like to get stuck in on good stuff with good people to make a great job of a great idea
