Directed, edited and VFX on an Adore Me holiday campaign commercial. Was hired to fix an existing commercial, but after reading the brief and seeing the existing commercial and original source material, ended up reshooting, supplying daily tests for the client so they could decide what direction the commercial should go as their brief changed. Shot and edited the commercial in 3 weeks.
Summary
International Multi Award Winning and Royal Television Society nominated director. A story teller, visual artist, out of the box thinker. Calm under pressure - hire me
