The first thing I sold was a comedy sci fi series called Doc Chaos. I just put it in the post, sent it to a stranger - Al Burgess of Limehouse studios - and he paid me what seemed an enormous amount of money at the time. I currently have a 13 part TV drama series on Singapore TV and have a British feature in development with Catfish Productions in Hollywood (They produced Walk The Line, among other things.) I won the Best Hong Kong Film Project Award at the Hong Kong Asian Film Financing Forum for this and a feeding frenzy ensued. I have a new screenplay, Driving Beijing Wild, that I'm trying to develop and I have, at a rather belated age, bought myself a badass HD camera and started running around shooting everything in sight. My plan is to simply make movies and have fun doing it.
