Artist Statement
Honing in on the visceral elements of a scene is something I enjoy. Filmmaking for me is a rollercoaster of emotions with the initial excitement of what a project could be. I am fascinated by the dark, the power it holds. Stripping light away and only being left with as few sources. Focusing on the simplicity of what it brings to scene, the reflections it plays off.
My interests in technology and impacting others are combined in my creative process. Technical knowledge followed by creative ingenuity is a balancing act for a filmmaker wearing multiple hats. My productions focus on inserting the camera into a situation the viewer is experiencing having my creative intent being present. Letting a truly emotional moment for a scene take on a passive role removing my visual imprint. My approach to lighting reflects this same ethos with a naturalist approach taken over stylistic, my films are intended to cover life in the most engaging way without forgetting it’s a story, it’s not reality.
