Common questions

What documentaries have you directed?

The Motor, Floating Prison and The First Note, each directed and written, and edited or shot as well in some cases.

Do you take on branded documentary?

Yes. The same approach applies whether a film is independent or brand funded: find the story in the field and build the edit around what is actually there.

Do you shoot your own documentary work?

On some projects, yes. The First Note was directed, written and shot as DOP.
