The Summit



This was my final Film in Film Production. It was definately a bitter-sweet film to work on. While difficult and stressful in all stages of production, I learned so much from this film in terms of directing, camerawork, and overall organisation. I directed, Produced, Co-wrote and Shot this one. This final edit was done by David McCabe. Again, the sound quality isn't great, but i'm really proud of some of the visuals and again, i think the story is very strong.

also, in the credits, it should be Vincent Browning as Dave (the Dad)

Faith



This was my final film in first year Film Production. We started off going for a western feel for the film, and it evolved from there. I shot, co-wrote, co-directed and co-edited this one. despite the overall pretty dodgy sound, i'm really pleased with how this one turned out. There's alot i would change if i was to shoot it again, but overall i think the story comes across really well, which is the important thing.

Also, best group of actors i've worked with so far, they all worked really well together and were just an awesome bunch of people.

The Conspiracy



This is another short i did in first year Film. This was an exercise in creating an opening sequence for a (non-existant) feature film. We were supposed to achieve this in 20 shots in total, but ours didn't work out that way, so we did some reshoots and came up with this. I manned the camera for this one, as well as editing most of the final cut, and i'm rather pleased with how it turned out.

ICU



This is a short comedy I made in first year of Film Production. Aside from misguidedly starring in it, I also co-directed with Sam Noone and edited most of it. I'm really fond of it in general, because i think the comic timing works pretty well, and it was great to come away from a project having achieved exactly what you set out to do, which wasn't always the case.

The Trinket tree

Again, on our little Newbridge adventure, we came across two of these trees, adorned with all kinds of strange little knick-knacks. It was quite a cool thing to behold.

Here are two of the best photos i got.

Yet More

More from the Newbridge excursion





More Blood

Yet another shot of the "gash" on my arm. Also a severed finger, I had a lot of fun with that.


The "stump" is sculpted out of soft wax, discoloured with red make-up and then just covered in fake blood

Furthermore

I recently went on a bit of an excursion with the girlfriend on which we broke out the cameras on got some photography on. Here are some of the results of that adventure.
