Within a dense and mysterious forest two figures emerge, ADAM, urgently searching for something, and ELLE, desperately pursuing him. He will not answer her urgent questions and rushes ahead leaving her alone and isolated. The power of forest forces these individuals to confront their fears and find some kind of unity through coming together with a childish game.
A film shot over periods of the Spring and Summer of 2020 and edited in 2021.
A geographical journey, the ebb and flow of nature's garden, presented in black and white 4:3. A study of the nature of light as it falls on the leaves of flowers and trees. A pull towards the light, inviting transcendence.
Due to unfortunately losing the original master file, this is the highest quality version of the film available.
Music from The Lighthouse Soundtrack composed by Mark Korven
An exploration of the Greyfriars ruin at Dunwich, Suffolk, and the sprits that haunt it. An experiment in abstract filmmaking, proposing the thesis that in darkness, we begin to see new forms and shapes that may or may not exist.
Note as of 06/01/21: This project was filmed on 21st October of 2019 and completed in December of the same year. I had originally intended to work on the soundtrack myself and use the Mark Korven The Lighthouse music as a temporary track, however the project was shelved and I never managed to continue working on it. Therefore, I consider this an unfinished project due to the soundtrack being work I do not have permission to use, as well as my dissatisfaction with the motion graphics amongst other technical details. Regardless, I have decided to release this to YouTube in the hope of sharing the mystical qualities of this mysterious structure found on the coast of Suffolk, England.

The River Song is a short film inspired by lonely walks around Grantchester Meadows at dusk, a time when the creatures of nature begin to scurry out of their hiding.
The film aims to express an appreciation for the beauty, the grace, and the awe of nature, while also conveying the magnificence of living life in the present.
As the film concludes, it will invite viewers to transcend into the final image and experience such awe for themselves.

Still structures is a short observational ambient film exploring the atmosphere present at a location on the outskirts of Trumpington, Cambridgeshire.
People come and go through this transitory place. New houses have been built, all the same, rows of them. A dark tower looms over. The wind is a constant reminder of the subtle life present in the eerie quietness.

'Reminds Me of You' is a play written by Alan Anderson and performed here at Liverpool Lime Street Station by Roxanne Male and Richard Helm.
Alan is the founder of the 'Liverpool Playwrights', a local play and screen writing meetup which has given birth to some of the cities' finest writers. The way it works is you go there with a script and we read it out and point out ways to make it better. Then you do the same with somebody else!
Experimental film playing with natural light, editing and especially composition.
I see this as quite the technical experiment since I messed up on a few things including the black balance (I think) and the LUT I used. However the most prevalent problem is the compression of the video which at some points is really BAD! It's YouTube fault though, and I'm not sure if there's anything I could have done!
