Cadbury’s ‘Oat Crunch’ Advert

20th April 2015

Here’s an advert I choreographed featuring spooning.  A first for me and great fun to produce.  The 30sec spot works, but hopefully there will be a longer version as there were a few fantastic bits that were cut.

Rewriting Tips

16th April 2015

I just completed another draft of a feature script. I really like doing multiple drafts with reading space in between, because each new version is usually an improvement on the last. I find the process similar to the way I paint (in multiple thin washes). It takes a while to build up the color and […]

Landed

I recently completed a new painting. Again, working with acrylic on heavy hot press water colour paper.  I’m relatively pleased with the result, especially the skin, although the scan did not pick up the subtle colours.  The original looks best!  Incidentally, if you like any of the work on the site, prints may be available.  […]

Spring Work

30th March 2015

I’ve just finished off a string of fun adverts.  Spooning with the Traktor boys for Cadburys, a stomping large techno viking for the business to business firm Thunderhead and a quirky image led advert for Simply B (directed by the always lovely and superb Karen Lamond).  I’ll post the links to the ads as soon […]

‘Man Up’ Film Coming Soon

The trailer is out for the upcoming Romantic Comedy ‘Man Up’ starring Lake Bell and Simon Pegg.  I choreographed a scene for the film (there are clips of it in the trailer) and it came out brilliant.  This was another choreography job for the Big Talk stable (I previously did Worlds End, Cuban Fury, Shaun […]

Salsa Kung-Fu

13th January 2015

The DVD for the movie ‘Cuban Fury’ came out at the end of the summer.  Here is the dance fight between Chris O’Dowd and Nick Frost which I choreographed.  Brad Allen did the stunts.  Funny stuff.

Updated Site

I’ve put a montage of choreography clips from the movie ‘Walking on Sunshine’ up in my WORK section under NEW STUFF. There were so many numbers in the film, this seemed the best way to show bits of the work on my site.  I’ve also put up my NEW 2015 COMMERCIAL SHOWREEL.  This is the […]

New Year

6th January 2015

I think everyone has a tendency to start the New Year reflecting on the previous one. I’m no different, although this time of year never feels new to me.  I prefer celebrating the Chinese New Year as it feels one step closer to spring and the return of the light.   For now, my very brief […]

New Paintings

I have two new paintings up in my artwork section.  One, entitled ‘Red Riding Blanks’, is a narrative mash-up. It features ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ as a blank from ‘World’s End’.  It’s meant to be tongue and cheek in terms of content and was another practice painting.  I wanted to play around with light and […]

The Joy of Practice

5th November 2014

I’ve been pretty ‘creative’ my whole life and have turned my hand to a variety of art forms. As a teenager, I was a competent musician, I have been dancing, drawing and painting since childhood, and I’ve enjoyed writing on and off since college. I’ve also been cavalier in my approach and tend to drop […]
