Starting as an industrial designer in Sydney Australia I had grown to love form, light and creative processes. But I felt that there was something lacking in this creative field. I wanted more. I loved talking to people, being a person people could come to when they wanted to feel better or just to have a good time. After 5 years of work in Sydney, I was ready to shake up my life, so I bought a 1 way ticket to France, where I moved to the seaside in a south western town called Hossegor. It was here that I developed a curiosity and love for cinema and film making. I started to film EVERYTHING, from forest walks, cooking dinner, surf trips .... Anything to learn and explore what film making was all about... By 2013 i was shooting my first commercials. This was scary and exciting at the same time, but I absolutely loved it and my clients adored their film.My clients were amazed at how I was able to tease out the story of why they were passionate about the service they were offering and then convey this emotion and energy into a film that would engage the viewer and influence them to want to become part of my clients story. Cinema, I believe, is one of the most influential art forms on the mind and energy of an audience. Along with stage, it can make you laugh, cry, love, hate and fear. The power if cinema is such a strong force that the creators of this craft can really make an impact on someones life and this is why I love cinema and wanted to be a part of this creative craft. I am a massive lover of old romantic comedy. From "You've Got Mail" to "Notting Hill" there is something amazing about how you can laugh and cry at the same time and really feel the energy between two people. I spent a great detail of time analysing and being inspired by directors work such as, Stanley Kubrick, Fellini, Tarantino, The Coen Brothers and many more. Their ability to tell a story or evoke a desired emotion through considered cinematography and direction is 2nd to none. I am inspired by many forms of cinema. From action movie sounds and transitions, to the colours and composition of many artistic directors. Creating emotionally engaging films is what I strive for every day.
