Romany language and music on BBC Radio 3
Here’s a 10 minute programme I produced earlier this week for BBC Radio 3 about Romany language and song broadcast earlier today. Its all fascinating but the bit I produced starts 36 minutes in.
Featuring the amazing music of Romany Diamonds Ben and Cindy Czureja doing “Kaj O Bergi o Versha” (Where are the mountains and woods) and the the legend Ambrose Cooper singing “All through me rakli kicking up a guggeli”
Last cut is the deepest
I’m really proud of the latest party political broadcast I produced for the Labour Party with Josh Cole. It explores the harrowing consequences of what happens when police and youth services are cut. It was broadcast on primetime BBC1 and ITV tonight.
Labour of Love
Just finished producing the first of a series of party political broadcasts commissioned by the Labour Party. It’s made a fair few people cry already and been hailed as breaking the mould of party political broadcasts. Take a look:

Freedom 2018
Really excited to have spent the autumn working on an awesome music video for an iconic music legend. Can’t say much about it for now, but it will be launched in 2018 and it features 15 of the most incredible survivors I’ve ever met, each with their very own Freedom story. Here’s a sneak peak:

This is Colour
I’m really proud to have produced this for Channel 4 by working alongside a student of mine.
This is Colour, written, performed and directed by first time filmmaker Josh Wildman, is a full spectrum, one man walking monologue on the value of diversity. At a time when racism and intolerance are on the march, this cautionary tale from a young gay black performer is a reminder about what to take from the rainbow.
Somewhere only we know
I’ve just produced this campaign film for Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party with Director Josh Cole. We’ve been shooting it across Britain since february and at the heart of Jeremy’s own constituency in London. Many thanks to the artists Lily Allen and Keane for the use of the awesome track.
RIZE UP UK
With a general election just days away we’ve spent the last few days on the road producing this campaign video for Rize UP UK, a campaign to get young people to vote,. Featuring music by Grime Artist Big Narstie and Tommy Jules, we’re hoping it will be an anthem of democratic participation to get the young to vote.

Random Acts: Hear
The first of two films I’ve produced for first time writers and directors from the Rye Studio School for Channel 4 is now online. Ellie Taylor is a filmmaker whose short film ‘Hear’ is premiering on Am I Normal. Commissioned as a result of a partnership between the Arts Council England and Channel 4, which works with and develops 16-24 year old filmmakers through a national initiative known as First Acts, ‘Hear’ explores what it’s like to live with a hearing impairment.

Food dancing campaign
A ground breaking advertising campaign I produced for the advertising agency Wieden and Kennedy will be seen on billboards, in store and on TV from January to April 2017. Working alongside director and photographer Josh Cole we have spent the past couple of months casting real people who were prepared to capture that moment when they were getting down to their favourite music whilst cooking. Here’s a couple of the shots.
