VIDEOGRAPHY

To be truthful

That's a paraphase of Jean Luc Godard's well-known phase about cinema - but it applies to any collection of moving images. Nothing is more effective at getting a message across (most often, about ourselves) than a video... long or short.

I storyboarded, scripted, remotely produced, directed and edited this chapter of the 'Connect Outdoors' series, and couldn't have done it without the expert lensmanship of Andrew Burton, of US outdoor studio 'Duct Tape Then Beer'.

Nuremberg/Bavaria

Working with the now Time Trial C3 Paralympic World Champion was a dream for this short. Recruiting two local videographers for the drone and riding sequences while I was on stills duties, I took over the motion capture for the time trial section of the film. I could've done with an extra pair of hands or three for this one! A brilliant experience over in Bavaria, regardless.
