I always drew and invented stories. I still feel that what I do is play even though within an economic context I have a job as a storyboard artist. I have been fortunate to work with some notable directors including Gregor Jordan, Robert Conolly, Pip Carmel, Brian Henson, David Caesar and most recently Christina Andreef and Richard Roxburgh.
The creation of a feature film storyboard is a soulful and rewarding experience. This is the art of telling a story in a visual sequence imparting everything from composition to character, lens to lighting. The less soulful but still incredibly rewarding side of my work has been within the TV advertising realm where massive budgets have afforded all the best toys available to the film makers I work with which means I have had to learn about techno cranes, fraser lens, CGI, green screen composites and all elements both practical and virtual. So I feel have achieved a nice balance between the technical and the creative.
Armed with these skills I have finally taken the last step in the completion of a dream. I am currently co-directing a feature film with my artist friend Gav Barbey. The work is broad in its artistic scope and we hope ground breaking in more ways than one.
