FICTIONAL FILMS

Original fictional films and passion projects I have made over the years.

This is a selection of fictional films, both short and feature-length, that I made between the ages of 17 and 20 during my time in college and early employment, using very limited resources. While some aspects may appear dated, these projects hold great personal meaning and mark key milestones in my self-taught journey as a filmmaker. I’ve included them to exemplify my early dedication to the craft as well as the progression of my skills over time. I kindly ask viewers to consider this context when assessing their quality.
WANDERING (2014)
A no-budget horror drama about a young man grieving his father's death, who befriends an isolated stranger in his new hometown. The film explores the unsettling consequences of their relationship and showcases the emotional depth that can be achieved even with limited resources. 
It earned notable accolades, including a runner-up spot at the 2015 British Horror Film Festival, an Audience Choice Award at the January 2025 Lift-Off Filmmaker Sessions, and over 1000 views on YouTube. Actor/comedian Tom Rosenthal described it as an "insane achievement" in 2021.
SELF-PORTRAIT (2013)
A short silent comedy film that explores the transformative power of artistic hobbies. Shot using a newly purchased Canon DSLR and RODE Stereo Videomic Pro, the film humorously reflects on how embracing creative pursuits, like railway modelling, drawing, and photography, can enrich daily life. This project was largely an experimental venture, where I explored new editing software and equipment, to further develop my technical and creative skills.
NIGHTMARE (2013)
A psychological horror film exploring trauma, memory, and the blurred line between dreams and reality. Nightmare follows Henry Sorin, a troubled teenager in foster care haunted by visions of a cloaked deity. Filmed in eerie locations, including my late grandfather’s home, this early project was key in developing my skills in writing dialogue and creating unsettling environments on a limited budget. Shot in standard definition, it remains a personal milestone and was a runner-up for selection at the British Horror Film Festival 2013.
THE ATTIC (2012)
My first feature-length project marked a significant step in my filmmaking journey. This largely silent horror film follows teenager Joseph Parker as he uncovers the dark history of a ghostly presence tied to a mysterious necklace. Filmed across various locations, it was an important exercise in building tension and atmosphere without dialogue. While some aspects feel dated compared to my current work, it remains a personal milestone and my most-watched film, with over 7000 views. It received strong praise when screened at Brockenhurst College in 2012, solidifying my reputation as a passionate filmmaker.
