AFMX JAM 2011
This is a promotional item I produced for the organisers of the 2011 AFMX Jam, an amateur freestyle motocross competition that took place last year. I heard about this though a friend and offered my services to produce a small piece that captured the flavour of the day.
Gott 4 Gumball – Competition Entry
This is a quick and dirty video I shot for a friend of mine to enter the Betsafe Gumball driver competition. It seems that Ben has what it takes as he won the competition and, so he says in no small part due to the video! HD version of the video on the Betsafe site: http://bit.ly/bf1qyY
Shot on HDV, edited in Final Cut Pro.

What We Do
If you have enquiries about this DVD, please contact me using the onsite form.
What We Do is the latest project I have produced from inception through to production in the world of Kenpo 5.0.
I embedded myself with the international Kenpo 5.0 demonstration team that were showcasing Jeff Speakman’s Kenpo 5.0 at the 25th Martial Arts festival at Bercy in Paris in March 2010.
The intention of the shoot was to produce a definitive article regarding 5.0 as there would not be an opportunity again that would have major European and American practitioners – including Jeff Speakman himself – in one place for such a display.
The retail DVD that was produced is a feature piece with interviews with all the major players in the 5.0 world along with rehearsal and performance footage. It was an interesting shoot, very time critical. Eight interviews in forty-five minutes, and a running battle with aircon units, helicopters and Parisian traffic!
The tease here is designed as an online trail for the DVD and has been featured in website embeds worldwide. And I didn’t embed all of them, so I guess some people like what I do.
Why not get in touch and see what end-to-end solutions I can offer you too?

Fiery Food Festival – September 2009
I was commissioned by the organisers of the Brighton and Hove Food Festival to produce three pieces highlighting their Fiery Food Festival – a bi-annual event that takes place in central Brighton – a ten-minute piece giving an overall flavour* of the weekend-long event, you can see above; a piece covering the National Chilli Awards, an event that is looking for sponsorship in 2010 and the Chilli eating contest, where some brave souls eat their way through raw chilli peppers until, well until their bodies make them stop. These can be seen here and here.
*yes, that is a pun.
2009 Chilli Eating Competition
Of course, the organisers also wanted me to show the fun side – in a Jackass/Dirty Sanchez way – of the Fiery Food Festival. after it wouldn’t be a Chilli festival without some hot* Chilli action, would it?
They asked me to make a record of one of the highlights of the weekend, the Chilli eating competition, and that’s what you see here.
It was a challenge; I wasn’t expecting nearly as many people to cram into the marquee as did. Little room to shoot gave me the additional advantage of giving the entire event a pacy, hand held reality feel, there were plenty of opportunities for tight, close shots of the competitors that add to the vibrancy of the event the viewer will feel as they watch. See for yourself…
*yes, that’s a pun too.
National Chilli Awards 2009
The National Chilli Awards was another event that was a highlight of the Fiery Food Festival. The organisers are looking for further funding to get this even into the mainstream next year and the piece I was commissioned to produce covering this was part of the larger strategy to gain more sponsorship for future events.
To show the depth of this event – it is in growers’ circles a prized accolade – I took the opportunity to talk to the judges as well as cover the the certificate presentation. I felt it was important to allow the viewer – or potential sponsor – to see a little more than just who won.
