Episode 2 is called ‘The Brilliant Disguise’ and the storyline is as follows: MARY and DAVE both call in sick in order to make it into the pit at a Springsteen gig. Meanwhile, their daughter, ROSALITA, plans to […]

Thank you 2016! Friendships were made, careers launched and casting types redefined. The video below captures an essence of the past year (utilising clips from recent months only). I feel immensely privileged to be able to work with so many upcoming, talented actors. We are in such a tough industry, where no matter how much […]

I have recently uncovered Neil Armstrong’s secret diaries, written from the surface of the moon. What follows are some key excerpts, revealing a fascinating insight into his experiences.  20 June 1969. Arrived on the moon today, enjoying it so far although rumours of a water-based adventure park turned out to be a dud. 20 June […]

I will not be taking on any new showreel clients in October/November/December. And I have decided to put my waiting list on hold. The key to being good at my job is freshness, to be open to new ideas and inspirations. The problem is; I’m a workaholic, I take on so much and if I’m […]

In the past few years, the majority of my writing and directing has been for actors showreels. It’s been a very enjoyable experience, helping upcoming actors build material to […]

I am currently in production on my new web-series, ‘East Street Mary and Dave’. Mary and Dave, who reside in East Street, Dagenham, are Bruce Springsteen superfans. The central problem in their marriage is that they can never agree who is the bigger fan. We will get to follow them through arguments about outtakes, setlists, […]

Here are some clips from showreels I have recently created – these are some of my favourites because they are a little more experimental, yet do a great job of showing castability. Creating material from scratch is a big responsibility, but it’s also a great opportunity. There was a period a few years ago when […]

1. There are only so many times you can share your new headshots or boast about being ‘on set’. People want to see your finished projects. 2. It’s not a race to be the busiest. I know people who don’t feel good unless they’ve had six meetings in a day. In this industry your time might be better spent […]
