More about me

I am focussed on producing innovative films that offer great entertainment, while remaining artistic with strong meaning. With an injection of subtle comedy and often incorporating sci-fi or fantasy elements I want my films to embrace originality in-terms of content and form. I am currently working on my second feature film, Harmony's Requiem. Post-production should be finished by the end of August 2010.
