Wow. An epic new trailer for The Lord of the Rings : The Rings of Power has been unleashed.

Absolutely packed with so many amazing characters and creatures - both old and new, heroic and terrifying.
Along with a few glimpses into some of the action set pieces I worked on, that we encounter across all corners of middle earth.

Really looking forward to watching the new season in a few weeks time. I can't wait to see the final result of everyone's hard work.

Season two will be available exclusively to watch on Amazon Prime from 29th August.

Watch the epic trailer below:

After a long wait my patience has finally been rewarded. A television project that I have been looking
forward to seeing, has finally released a shiny new teaser trailer.

The Lord of the Rings : The Rings of Power is a project that my directors - both main unit and 2nd
unit - kept me very busy on for quite some time. It was a truly epic production, across all departments,
and has some of the most impressive sets I have ever seen. I enjoyed every minute of it.

Season two will be available to stream on Amazon Prime from 29th August.

You can find the first teaser trailer below:

An unusual film project that I worked on a couple of years ago, now has a trailer, ahead
of it's arrival next month.

How to Rob a Bank is a documentary feature film about the prolific bank robber Scott Scurlock.
Who along with his partners, using elaborate make-up and disguises, managed to successfully
rob seventeen banks in Seattle in the 1990s - without getting caught.

He was so successful that he was given the nickname 'Hollywood' due to the sophisticated make-up
that he wore to disguise himself.

The documentary film will be available to watch on Netflix from 5th June.

You can watch the trailer below:

Another of the television projects that I worked on last year arrives today.

Wolf is a project that is totally at the other end of the entertainment spectrum.
I'm not exactly sure what to expect from this one, but I'd say dark and twisted pretty much sums it up.

It is based on the novel 'Wolf' by Mo Hayder, which is one of her Jack Caffery series of books.

It is available to watch on the BBC and iplayer from 31st July.

You can find the totally deranged trailer below:

Huzzah! A ridiculously fun television project that I worked
on last year has finally arrived and is now available to stream.

The Great has returned for a third season. The outrageous and hilarious story continues,
with the brilliant pairing of Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult.

I worked on the series across several episodes, collaborating closely with most of the seasons
Directors and Directors of Photography.

The show is now available to watch on both Lionsgate+ & Starz.

Trailer fun below:

Now here is a trailer for a project that I am very excited about.

Silo is a science fiction dystopian thriller, that offers more questions than answers, where things may not be entirely what they seem. The cast assembled for this series is phenomenal. Leading them is the mesmeric Rebecca Ferguson, who also serves as Executive Producer.

It is an adaptation of the science fiction novel 'Wool' by uber talented Writer / Executive Producer Hugh Howey.

I got the opportunity to work on the project at the very beginning, with lead director Morten Tyldum - which was great fun. I am really looking forward to seeing the amazing work of Production Designer Gavin Bocquet and his art department team, who designed and built the silo from the ground up.

The series will be available to stream exclusively on Apple TV+ from May.

You can watch the teaser trailer below:




__________________________________________________________________________________________ 25th February 2023

A final addition to trailer month.

This is a project that I am really looking forward to seeing - especially as it will be released theatrically in cinemas.

Kandahar reunites the dynamic duo that is Gerard Butler and Director Ric Roman Waugh.
This will be their third collaboration after the highly successful Angel Has Fallen and Greenland.

I was lucky enough to be invited to work on the film, which was great to be working with Ric again.

The film will be released in cinemas in the US in May and the UK in June.

You can find the teaser trailer below:

Trailer month continues.

Great Expectations is a gorgeous yet brutal television project that I worked on across 2021 / 2022.

The formidable Olivia Colman leading the cast in this unconventional adaptation.

Another project, another trailer.
This one is for upcoming Amazon Studios series The Power which is based on the bestselling novel by Naomi Alderman.

I got the opportunity to work with a couple of interesting directors - Shannon Murphy & Ugla Hauksd ttir - on this very female oriented series. Where several sequences that were very visual FX, special FX and stunts heavy, all needed to be storyboarded.

The series is due to be released on March 2023 - and will be available exclusively on Amazon Prime.
One thing for sure is that it is guaranteed to be electrifying!

You can watch the full trailer below:
