the beautiful poetry 'SNARED" by David Nobay #nobbytime, encited an idea  for me to put imagery to enliven the words. what an incredible opportunity. an open brief, and a montage to consume my mind. i worked with the idea that the mind scrambles, it flickers with no standing still. memories, futures, and presents, make our subliminal and subconscious swim. metaphors take understanding, and time to resolve in understanding so my chance to make something that required multiple views inspired me to work with the mans voice in the poetry and the history that inhabited it. its meandering, mesmerising, and inhabits liminal spaces. i was awarded SILVER at the 2017 Australian Cinematographers awards for Experimental and specialised.

its been a very cool ride.

I just got home from 4 months in New Zealand shooting 6 x 60 second TVC's for GJ Gardner for #theworkshop and #99agency. we travelled the north and south island working in such gorgeous locations in Invercargill, Queenstown, Hamilton, Christchurch, Manawatu, Tauranga. shooting in Anamorphic almost completely on a zeiss 16-75mm zoom on Arri Mini, i used no lights, just a torch to get highlights to add highlight.

GJ Gardner builds custom houses and we were able to dig into 6 franchises and build on their themes of 'local' and 'family. im really happy with the results.

Im here to celebrate. i won gold for my Monarch project, for Corporate and Educational.at  the Australian Cinematographers Society. they awarded me  the gold just after Dione Beebe ACS won for Burberry London. YES PLEASE> . it completes a very cool year for me. travelling, shooting and directing projects in the US, New Zealand and Asia.  Bring it on
