4 years ago this month I wrote, filmed & directed a concept trailer for a modern day wizard of Oz film called Gale, which went viral worldwide. 4 years later and we’ve landed a deal with a leading American production company and we’re now half way through filming the official feature film. I couldn’t do it without the epic cast and crew who have been going above and beyond to bring this vision to life. Regardless of what happens next, the fact I get to direct and exec produce my debut feature film with such good people is all the win I need. Feeling very grateful. Oh and it’s black history month too 🫢 feels kinda special 🙏🏾

I love directing BUT one of my first passions is still cinematography. Whenever I can I’m still picking up that camera & self shooting just for the fun of it. These are some random frames from things I’ve shot, not all my best work but work that meant something at the time for various reasons 🎥

What an incredible journey. Thank you to who reached out to make their official documentary to celebrate 10 years of success as a global leader in the streetwear clothing industry. It was such a pleasure to not only learn about what it actually took to reach such heights but understand that it all came down to having an amazing team, I’ve met so many good hearted and inspirational people on this journey and trust me when I say that Hoodrich deserve every bit of success that they get 👊🏾 we had a great sold out event at Odeon cinema with so many good people and special guests that really made the night.

Thank you to my epic team who helped pull the film together and hopefully everyone can get a chance to see it in the near future.

I’m so pleased with the success from our very first Cinematography & Lighting Workshop a few days ago! Having a full house of passionate filmmakers was incredible, and I can’t thank you all enough for coming and sharing your energy. The positive feedback has been amazing and truly motivating!

This was the kick-off for our new series of “Frameway” workshops, designed to empower filmmakers at all levels. The next courses in cinematography, directing, and acting for screen are already up on the website, and spots went really fast last time!

Also, I’d like to say a massive thank you to for hosting us & for providing the amazing behind the scenes photography seen here.

Don’t miss out on this chance to dive deeper into filmmaking with a supportive community. Head over to www.frameway.co.uk (link also in bio) and reserve your spot!

Hey everyone, I'm happy to finally announce Monoreels! As some of you know, it's always been a frustration for Midlands actors to travel outside the city for professional showreels. That's why we created Monoreels – a high-quality monologue showreel filming service right here in the Midlands!

We're kicking things off with a phenomenal performance by the incredibly talented Sharni Tapako-Brown (check it out if you get a chance!). Sharni absolutely smashed it, and it's a great example of the power Monoreels can bring to your showreel.

This project is especially exciting because it allows us to support both actors and filmmakers in the Midlands. We're passionate about creating opportunities within the region.
If you know any actors looking to elevate their showreels, please share this post with them!

Now, I'm taking all that experience and putting it into practical workshops designed to bridge the gap between theory and real-world filmmaking.

There’s more…

As part of the FRAMEWAY family, I'm also introducing MONOREELS, our exclusive monologue filming service, creating visually stunning showreel performances.. This isn't just about filming monologues for actors – it's about crafting showreel scenes that truly showcase your talent and grab attention.

* Collaborative Process: We work with YOU, using my industry experience to craft a standout showreel.
