In 2022 I worked with Wildworks to capture and document the live performance for I Am Kevin. We then turned It turned into a feature film… and I got to be the Co-Cinematographer. It is beautiful, emotional and just amazing… everything about it is magical.

At the water's edge stands a tree.
At the water's edge, on the very edge, at the water's edge... Is me.'

On The Strandline - Prodigal UPG
"Almost as old as the oldest civilisation is the myth of the flood. The story of a few who survive the waters through Devine intervention, and the help of a boat… but the flood we face is not a myth, and we have no one to save us but ourselves…"
Super excited to share this with you! Created for the amazing @prodigalupg. Shot at 4-7am on a very windy Par Beach on September 17th 2021. Next time I will bring an assistant!
Proigal UPG were commissioned by the @timeandtidebells to make this emotional piece. On the Strandline is performed by the Emergent Ensemble – a group of five early career performers brought together in the time of Covid to survive the industry lockdown. Featuring @Adie Dove Tim Merrifield Angus Capel Talia Sealey Sam Nancarrow

Hope in a Jam Jar
Neal Megaw and Connie Crosby were commissioned by The Story Republic to make a short film for Kneehigh’s Random Acts of Art.
Hope in a Jam Jar was written by Olivia Lowry and is based on a true story set in 1933 Nanpean, when the clay pits froze over. Music is by the amazing Richard Trethewey.

Words by The Story Republic:
Clay country natives Edward Rowe and Olivia Lowry, along with fellow writer Wyl Menmuir, have been digging for stories, old and new, real and imagined, and degrees in between in Roche and Pentewan. These will be shared in May through random acts of distribution in both written and audio form.
Filmmakers Connie Crosby and Neal Megaw, inspired by the story of the Ice Skating Vicar of Nanpean, will be creating a short story film to celebrate this memorable moment in 1933. Weaving together writing by Olivia Lowry, song by Richard Trethewey and automata by Tony Crosby.
