Short film 'Garage'

In March 2020 just before the Covid-19 lockdown came into effect in the UK and during the four fights UCU strike action at Goldsmiths I was asked to shoot a short film with students and colleagues from Goldsmiths University MA Filmmaking course.

The film is set in a garage and sees two employees go about their work only to out perform each other in this high-jinks farce.

Chislehurst Caves Doc

Chislehurst: A Town on Top of a Tinderbox is a documentary about the town of Chislehurst and its involvement in the first world war. The program was commissioned by The Chislehurst Society through Chislehurst Caves - a place I have worked for since I was teenager. When asked to create a short documentary about the caves use as a munitions storage facility I jumped at the opportunity.  I had the chance to work with the Black Magic Cinema Camera using 12mm, 25mm and 50mm MFT SLR Magic lenses for this project. As well as this camera I also used my DSLR to acquire run and gun footage when needed. Sound was always going to be tricky with just myself doing the filming on those parts. Here is a link to the documentary - please use the password: 9Degrees to view it. https://vimeo.com/125403255
