Cinematography
The Happy Days Stay Retreat
An experimental short film exploring the ethical conundrums inherent to voluntary assisted dying in the case of Alzheimer’s patients. Think Roy Andersson meets Todd Haynes.
I wrote and directed this film, and I was also the production designer and cinematographer. I shot it on a Blackmagic Ursa Mini. The whole narrative takes place in one room, giving me a space to explore diverse visuals within highly limited parameters.
I’ve been working on a new edit of the film using some experimental techniques and intend to submit it to festivals upon completion. I’ve included a small teaser below (password hdsr).

2020
A series of remote-viewing live music performances recorded at the Newtown Town Hall Hotel and funded by the Inner West Council. I shot and edited the intro on a Canon 5d Mark II and a shoulder rig I built myself out of PVC piping and old tripod parts.
I also produced the reactive audio animation and logo, which you can read more about in the motion graphics section of this portfolio.
