About

I am a DoP and editor based in Wellington with 10+ years experience in editing, cinematography, lighting and camera with own equipment (Canon 5D full cine rig w/ full set Zeiss prime lenses), and a member of the New Zealand Cinematographers Society (N.Z.C.S). I have DoP'd 2 feature films, 25+ short films, shooting on formats ranging between DSLR (5D) to RED Epic to 16mm film, numerous music videos, and countless corporate & training videos. I have shot and edited a number of documentaries and corporate videos in the documentary/out of studio style and am currently shooting a feature film 'mockumentary'. Notable corporate jobs have been shooting for FIFA, Coca Cola, BP, DoC, Wellington Phoenix, NZDF, PriceWaterhouse Cooper, Government House Wellington and The Crown. A number of these were directed by myself. On top of this I have also been editing, using Final Cut Pro, for 10+ years and have a great eye and talent for taking raw footage shot for a documentary or corporate video and turning it in to a flowing story on screen. I also have experience with Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere and sound editing within FCP and Soundtrack Pro which I use all from my home edit suite.
