These are my favourite videos to do. It’s really fun to sit down with business owners and employees and get to know what makes their business unique. I really enjoy translating what I learn about people and their work into visual stories. These shoots are always fun and relaxed so it’s the best of both worlds! Enjoy!

CBC Radio’s The Story and the Song featuring King Sway
I did a profile video of King Sway and his song “Breathless” as part of CBC Music Hour with Bill Roach. Have a listen!
Astrid & Lilly Save the World is HERE!
I worked on this show one this past fall/winter as a second unit DIT and it was really fun! This show was also shot in Newfoundland and it’s premiering for the first time Jan 26th on the SYFI Network!
Watch the trailer tune into the show!
Check out this brand new show!
Son of a Critch is airing on January 4th on CBC and the CBC Gem app!! I worked on this production as a DIT and had a blast, there’s a lot of Newfoundland throwback nostalgia and it’s nice memoire of Mark Critch’s childhood growing up in the 80s here in Newfoundland. Don’t miss it!
Set in Motion Trailer
Here it is!! Part of CBC’s Absolutely Canadian series, Set in Motion will be airing on October 2nd at 8:30pm on CBC. 🙂
A behind-the-scenes look
Last week I directed and co-produced a shoot for my new documentary, Set in Motion, at The Pouch Cove Foundation. We had a team that included a DP (Cecil Johnson), Sound Recordist/Mixer (Don Ellis), Camera Assistant (Duncan DeYoung), Production Manager (Mayra Sanchez) and Stills Photographer (Alex Stead). On this shoot we interviewed two researchers from On the Move Partnership, Deatra Walsh and Leanna Butters and they gave us some insight on the work they have completed recently.
The whole shoot went really well and I loved working on a team, something I don’t often do but definitely would like to be doing a lot more of in the future.
It’s all starting to come together for this doc finally as pre-production began during our 2020 lockdown. I’m happy to see this take form and looking forward to its release this coming fall.
Shooting a doc in the pandemic
We have been lucky in Newfoundland and I have my first vaccine now, yay! Shooting has been pretty straight forward for the most part with a few set backs due to the recent lockdown. For now it’s mostly social distancing, masks and hand sanitizer, just like everyone else!
Right now I’m shooting my new doc and also working on some other small commercial shoots. It’s a great time of year to be outside :).
I have been in pre-production!
It’s been a while since I last posted (I feel I say that every time haha) but I have been busy doing some pre-production for my newest doc, Set in Motion, which will be airing on CBC this fall. Pre-production doesn’t give me much exciting things to post except for this one time I went to Bell Island to put up flyers (and also eat fish & chips) so here you go:
Also I’m out of focus in the photo because my fiance took it, some day I will have him trained.. haha.
Come watch Rock Solid Builds!
This is the first time HGTV has come to Newfoundland and they picked a great place to start, Brigus!!
This home reno show is the first of its kind and its airing on Feb. 18th, 2021 on HGTV. I helped out as a camera operator/assistant and we followed around Randy and his team and they renovated old houses in Brigus. Put it in your PVR now because you wont want to miss out!
