Affiliations

With Media Production being a core interest, I make time for analogue film projects, whether promotional or narrative. This involves selection of film stocks, communication with developing labs (such as Kodak) and handling of antique camera equipment. I have three short films ready for shooting.

As an ex Japanese resident, I still make time for studying Japanese. And I play Senior Rugby at my local club/help run a social team.
