I run a niche production company, Amehlo Productions, in Durban, SA, from which myself and a small team produce/direct/shoot and edit video content for broadcast and online platforms. Documentary film work is our focus. A passion for powerful story-telling drives the work we produce. We take pride in the unexpected beauty found in the simplest or strangest of places. Empathy and humility result in the best interviews. Socio-political doccie work is our favourite content but we also regularly do more commercial work. My DOP of choice has the following gear (C200, FujiXT3, Drone, Gimbal, 2x Aputure 300Dii Rode NTG 3 rifle mic, Rode Go and Senheisser lapels) Together we make a great team, both adventurous and meticulous! Most recently we are proud to have produced the award-winning documentary Coding for Crayfish for Abalobi and also an insert for BBC World News on Forced Sterilisation of women in South African hospitals.

Produced for Substance Films
A promo for a full length independent documentary I co-directed exploring the issue of birth in South Africa. 3 South African women share their journey to motherhood. This lens is used to explore maternal health and motherhood in South Africa, where the massive discrepancy between public and private health care effectively separates women who live alongside each other into different countries.
