PROFILE: Since 2015 I’ve been running my production company, The Daily Lunge. I
write, direct and often shoot for my own clients, whilst self-shooting and editing for
other production companies, agencies and news wires. I am exible, easy-going and
happy directing a team or shooting solo. I hope to move into creating more of my own
content and have several lm, TV and doc ideas in pre-production.
