The world is a terrible place, tequila makes it a better one. We had an awful lot of fun shooting two spots for Casa Noble Fine Tequila this week, although I did set my hair on fire and melted several centimetres of my favourite jumper. Totally worth it. (PS. I wasn't drunk)

Trailers here, full length films on the 'Commercials' Page...
Just wrapped on a beautiful high-end shoot for Unshackled & Blindfold Wines today, two US-only brands that are part of the CBI Group under the Prisoner Wine Company. We made two cocktail recipes for Unshackled and a brand film for Blindfold to introduce their new White Pinot Noir. Three films made extra beautiful by the epic talents of Dean Braybrooke Gray (DoP), Gabriel Jones, (Focus Puller) Steph Marie, (Clapper Loader) Adrian Mackay and Terry Roberts, (Gaffer/Lighting) Katy McClelland (food stylist and onscreen talent) and Sarah Vassallo (CA). Look out for the remarkable #shittyrigs Dean, Terry and Adrian came up with in the behind the scenes photos below... Can't wait to share this one! We have seen some epic shows this summer - The Anselm Keifer at White Cube was a particular highlight. We've also been to a few kid-friendly museums including the new Young V&A (about 30 times due to it being the wettest July in recorded history) and it's awesome! Just ask my drinking buddy... she particularly loves the audacity of sticking a £50k Jeff Koons in the soft play...
Sweet little shoot with the amazing volunteers who make Coppafeel's mission to publicise breast and chest checking for cancer a reality. Obviously I couldn't resist putting the papier-mache boob-helmet on for a photo opportunity. Please still take me seriously as a filmmaker. If you ever did.
Did a bit of crunching and munching with KFC for these ASMR / Food Porn shorts - here's some behind the scenes action shots depicting adventures with foley, culinary magic with superglue, and more mayonnaise than you can shake a chicken drumstick at... Brilliant work from DoP Sean Jackson, Food Stylist Alice Ostan, and Sound Recordist Alex Hotz, with a special guest appearance from Joseph Adelakun.
Just completed an interesting low budget project for a charity that's developing a rehabilitation program for men who have substance use issues and have committed intimate partner violence. The program has been proven to literally save lives, which is not something I can often say about my job, so this one was pretty special.
We reenacted two of the organisation's group therapy sessions with actors in place of real service users. I created their characters and worked with the actors individually to develop them and then the group improvised their performances over the course of a two day shoot. The films ended up being over two and a half hours worth of deliverables which will be viewed all over the world by other clinicians who are recreating this groundbreaking program. Quite an experience. Here’s a little taster of it.
Had a lot of fun shooting these pretty little cocktail videos for Tastemade this week, and then a couple of additional recipes with Scott Ball, better known as @scottcaneat from Instagram and Tiktok. Had to come up with about a million 'hacks' to get to these so hope you enjoy!
Wow, what a stunning film. Brilliantly cast by my old pal from Big Talk, Lucy Pardee. See it big if you can.
