videographer · editor · content producer
I shoot, cut, colour and share stories people actually stop scrolling for. Music videos, live sessions, short docs and social-first content from Naarm / Melbourne.
start herea music video for friends, shot and cut in 4k
My mates in Assteroid needed a clip, so we took the band to the Montague St Bridge. I planned the shots, filmed in 4K and cut it to the song's energy in Premiere Pro.
It's the piece that best shows the whole job: working with a client, directing people on location, and delivering something they were proud to share.

behind the lens
I'm a Melbourne musician and educator who ended up behind the camera because the bands I loved deserved better footage. That turned into live sessions, music videos, short documentaries and a lot of late nights in Premiere Pro.
I've spent 16 years working in digital technology and education, designing and delivering digital skills training for the public. It's taught me how to explain things clearly, write for real audiences and turn up with a plan.
I shoot on a DJI Osmo Pocket in 4K D-Log, edit and grade in Premiere Pro, and mix sound in Logic Pro. I hold a Certificate IV in Cyber Security and I'm finishing a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.

got a story that needs telling?
let's make something
I'm looking for content producer and videographer roles in Melbourne, and I'm always up for a creative project.
one shoot, many livescontent isn't finished until it's where people are
I plan the edit for the platform before I press record. One day on location becomes a YouTube master, vertical cuts for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, square posts for the feed, stills for posters, and captions for everyone watching on mute.
