I’m James, a Creative Director, Director and DOP creating cinematic work across immersive experiences, branded documentaries and global commercial campaigns.

I lead projects from concept through to final delivery, often editing the work myself to stay closely connected to the craft and the storytelling.

I’ve collaborated with leading creative directors, and brands including GE, H&M, Converse, Squint Opera/Journey and Adobe.

My documentary work has won Royal Television Society Awards, Best UK Short at Open City Doc Fest and is held in the BFI National Archive.

If you have a project in mind I’d love to here from you :)
