Biography

A unique up and coming filmmaker who doesn’t shy away from controversial or experimental work. Specialising in creating festival favourite films in a short time in outback Queensland. In fact, he has made four films in the outback town of Winton, with one of them ‘Roy’ winning Best Short Film in 2016. His filmography since graduating Griffith Film School in 2017 largely consists of music videos for such clients as Tia Gostelow (Triple J Unearthed High and Qld Music Award Winner) and Ian 'Dicko' Dickson (Australian Idol). He is also a multi-award winning filmmaker who wrote and directed short films starring renowned Australian character actors Gyton Grantley (The Dressmaker, Underbelly, House Husbands) and Roy Billing (Jack Irish, The Dish, Underbelly). His last short film, ‘Remus and Ron’, won a number of awards including the award for Australian Independent Excellence at Melbourne Indie Film Festival, a Special Mention at Berlin Lift-Off, as well as winning the Sydney Lift-Off online competition, and many more nominations.
