In 2010, he made, THE NEWS, which went viral and introduced us to the character of, ‘Daniel’. The film has since screened in 22 countries and has been translated into 14 languages. It’s prequel; PET (2011) is now showing at film festivals everywhere. Alongside his heavily awarded commercial work – see ROBBERS DOG – he has a TV series in development.
