Recent campaign ad I wrote, produced and directed for a children’s right charity – shown at the Houses of Parliament:

Recent ‘style’ test video, just trying out a filming aesthetic:

Example of directing a high-profile celebrity. This is one of three quick-turnaround promos featuring Samuel L Jackson, for a men’s cancer charity in collaboration with Men’s Health:
