My latest independent short. Explores emotional attachment and the weight of what we cannot let go.

I write, direct, edit, score, and perform in my own films, from first word to final cut. Zero-budget shorts in psychological thriller and existential drama, where the line between reality and what we imagine keeps dissolving.
Writer, director, editor, sound designer, and lead actor on every solo project. Five independent shorts under MG Motionworks, plus one collaborative QUT production.
My latest independent short. Explores emotional attachment and the weight of what we cannot let go.

The longest film in the body of work. Explores memory, grief, and the fragments of a life replayed: what we hold onto and what slowly slips away.

A raw emotional short, solo from concept to final cut.

What happens when insomnia collides with REM lucid dreaming and the line between sleep and reality dissolves. Based on a true story: a brain starved of rest begins creating images and sounds that spill into waking life.

A metaphor for life’s cruellest moments: helplessness, regret, and despair when events spiral beyond control. About what we mourn not for what we did, but for what we could never change.

A collaborative student short made with my QUT cohort. A historical narrative set in rural Australia, co-written and co-directed with the group. The one film in my body of work where production was shared.

When insomnia collides with lucid dreaming and the line between sleep and waking dissolves. Based on a true story.
I’m a filmmaker based in Brisbane, currently studying Film and Animation at QUT. My work sits in psychological thriller, existential inquiry, and emotional drama. Stories about consciousness, identity, and the fragility of reality.
Every project is a zero-budget solo production. I set up the camera, wire the mics, and handle the audio, then step in front of the lens and perform. I write, direct, edit, sound design, and act in my own work, from first word to final cut.
Open to crew work, student productions, collaborative projects, and content work across South East Queensland. Brisbane based, available for on-set roles.
