Director and Writer
I started writing at a very early age. I loved creating, I looked forward to long car journeys so I can imagine monsters in the air and heroes fighting them. As time went on, I realised that this could be something I was not only passionate about but also could make a living from.
​
At the age of 20 I gained my first professional TV writers credit for a show I was also acting on. 6 months later, when I returned home, I began writing and directing 3 seasons of Two Housemates, a comedy web series which was named a Youtube cult classic and won many awards. This led me to having meetings with the BBC, Channel 4 and Hat Trick productions. I gained fans from all over the world and and the way it was directed and written caught the eye of Mark Gatiss, somebody I worked with on Sherlock. He loved the humour, the stories told, my imagination and my get out and just do it attitude. In March 2021, after being delayed from Covid, I filmed Moustache Man, a film about my experience of being a carer for my brother, something I have been since 2014. This film starred Mark Gatiss, Eboni Dixon, Josie Lawrence and Myself.
​
I love working with good people, collaborating and seeing what it is needed to get the best of everyone involved, from the actors to AD.
A collection of the projects I have worked on are below. If you think you could help finance my next project, believe I am a good fit for your project, need somebody to look through your script or just need some advice on getting out there and creating your own stuff, please do not hesitate to contact!
Adulting Pilot
A comedy mockumentary pilot all about Rebecca Goodwin running an adult industry studio in Chesterfield! It all is going to plan, except her work and her team continue to attract the peculiar.
It's Harry's first day working as an assistant at Rebecca Goodwin's studio. With her landlord looking for an excuse to get rid of them and a model having an accident with a douche, it looks like there may not be a job for him for very long.
Moustache Man
Moustache Man follows Jack, a carer, who is trying his best to take care of his Mother after the passing of his Father. His absence left a mother dealing with grief and her own mental illness, and a son trying his best to care for her. It follows my experience of being a Carer for a family member and featured the talents of Mark Gatiss, Josie Lawrence and Exec Produced by Russell Crowe.
Two Housemates Series 1
'Two Housemates' is an absurd comedy web series based on a struggling, in denial actor (Ryan) who gains a new housemate, the kind and lovely Kate. This was essentially made on a tiny budget by two people, myself and Ryan Watson.
Mixed Roots
Mixed Roots is a short film I directed and edited, written by Eboni Dixon. It follows Eboni and her experience of having mixed race hair, the negative influences she had growing up and embracing her glorious curly locks.
Two Housemates Series 2
Ryan deals with having a girlfriend who isn't the best with him while trying to navigate life without Kate looking out for him. This series was noticed by Mark Gatiss, who insisted on being in the third series. It featured names such as Chris Kendall, Mitch Benn and Mandeep Dhillon.
Two Housemates Series 3
The award winning third series featured the talents of Mark Gatiss and Holly Earl. Ryan and Kate attempt to navigate Ryan's step Dad trying to sell the house while noticing how much they may like each other. It featured over 120 minutes of screen time and took 13 months to make by a small team.
Which is Witch?
After gaining access to the writers room. It was my first professional writing credit and a great experience of writing and workshopping with a team. This one experience motivated me to do more and taught me what to do and what not to do!
