More about me

I've been making films since I was 14, back then with a digital 8 camera and a bunch of gullible friends. Over the years my films and equipment have improved, but not my friends gullibility. I formed Evil Hypnotist Productions in 1999 with Paul Terry to produce not only our slate of films but also music and promotional videos and educational projects. Evil Hypnotist Productions are the producers of the low budget blockbuster - great stories, well told in the digital medium. Digital cameras and computer editing software has opened out an industry that used to seem so closed and lofty. Now anyone can pick up a camera and tell a story. We all need to feed and nourish this trend so we can build the British film industry back up to those heady Ealing Studio days. Join the revolution.
