Leading Large-Scale Cinematic Storytelling
Some of the world's most powerful stories
aren't being told yet. I exist to tell them.
Experience
25+ years in premium documentary
Reach
Broadcast in 100+ countries
Platforms
Netflix · BBC · Nat Geo · PBS
I've spent 25 years making films that do something genuinely difficult: taking the most compelling human stories and the world's most complex science and turning them into films people can't stop watching. I've series-directed for Steven Spielberg, made films with Sir David Attenborough and Morgan Freeman, and told stories that have reached audiences in over 100 countries.
Now I bring that same craft to brands, founders, and organisations who have a story worth telling — and need it told with bold, immersive cinematic ambition.

Working With Brands
If your brand has a story
worth telling — let's tell it properly.
I work with technology companies, science innovators, green tech pioneers, purpose-led brands and founders who want their story told with genuine ambition. Not a corporate video. Not a product demo. A film that makes people feel something — and remember you for it.
Blue-chip documentary craft. Real scientific credibility. Cinematic scale. Brought to brand storytelling for the first time.
Science & Deep Tech
If your work is genuinely changing the world, I'll make sure people feel it — not just understand it.
Green Tech & Clean Energy
I've spent a career telling stories about our planet's future. Your mission deserves the same cinematic ambition.
Founders & CEOs
Your personal story is your most powerful asset. I'll help you find it, shape it, and tell it in a way that builds real trust.
Purpose-Led Brands
If sustainability or social impact is core to what you make, I'll build films and campaigns that make audiences believe it.
