Born in the picturesque town of Loxton, South Australia, my journey into filmmaking began with a toy video camera at age five. I spent my childhood creatively enlisting my siblings to act in homemade films, and my passion led me to become a cameraman for a Riverland news outlet. This experience laid the groundwork for my independent film company, Six Foot Four Productions.Inspired by Peter Jackson, I established Six Foot Four Productions and later Star Avenue Studios. Both ventures aim to deliver high-quality content and foster local talent in South Australia. With over 15 years of experience, I've worn many hats, from Camera Operator and Editor to Graphic Artist, honing my skills with Ten News, 7 News, and WIN Television.My creative endeavors include the film "Scooter," inspired by a real-life incident, and "Almost There," a poignant feature-length film that served as my personal film school. My groundbreaking web series "Level 17" showcases superb production value, engaging audiences with its intense narrative.I've co-created web series like "The Bush Bee Man" and "True Rhymes" with my father, Mark, garnering international acclaim. These series resonate with audiences worldwide, reflecting our shared vision and creativity.Themes of grief, kindness, and empathy, influenced by personal experiences, including the loss of my younger brother, permeate my work, making them relatable and impactful.My upcoming ventures include "Taste Bud Tours," a culinary exploration, and short films like "At the Mercy" and "Ace it!" where I serve as an executive producer. My commitment to excellence is evident in multiple accolades, including awards for "Scooter."Outside filmmaking, I enjoy veggie gardening and model building, creative outlets that complement my professional life.My work reflects a deep commitment to storytelling and innovation. Guided by the philosophy, "Piss Poor Preparation leads to Piss Poor Performance," my meticulous approach ensures excellence in every project. My passion, creativity, and dedication have left an indelible mark on the cinematic landscape, making me a respected figure in the industry.
