Documentary

Welcome to my documentary page! I believe that documentary filmmaking is one of the most powerful mediums for exploring the complexities of our world and sparking important conversations. I have a passion for telling stories that matter, whether it's about travel, music, human rights, or cultural identity. I am committed to creating documentaries that are thought-provoking, emotionally engaging, and visually stunning. My goal is to give a voice to the underrepresented and shed light on the issues that affect us all.

Here you will find a diverse range of documentary projects that I have been involved with. From intimate, personal stories to larger-scale productions, these documentaries seek to entertain as well as challenge the audience.

Britain’S MOST SCENIC Railway JOURNEY: MINUTE BY MINUTE

Jonathan Stow directed this 2 hour slow TV documentary special that aired at prime time (8 -10 pm) this Christmas season on Channel 5. It was one of the top 50 Christmas specials to watch! Using cutting edge filmmaking techniques, we follow the ‘old black 5’ locomotive along the iron road from Fort William to Mallaig.

Count Me In

From the advent of Jazz to the Rock and Roll, that morphed through the '60s and '70s, we explore the likes of Ringo, Charlie Watts, Keith Moon, John Bonham and Ginger Baker as they drove their rhythms across the world and changed music forever. You can have rhythm without music but you can't have music without rhythm.

What Really Happened in Douma?

The Russian government and media insisted that the chemical attack on April 7, 2018, where the Syrian government launched an attack on the town of Douma, had been staged and that they could prove it. Six days later, the American government and allies launched air strikes in response, so whatever happened in Douma became a matter of geopolitical importance.

This short documentary is a close-up look at the work of found-object and taxidermy artist Kelly McCallum.  An inspiring look at her controversial work and why she does it.

 

Bamboo Biker Boys

Over 20,000 views of this short documentary film, documenting the work of James Marr and Ian McMillan’s Bamboo Bicycle Club – A pioneering venture helping people who are passionate about cycling to design and build their own bicycles from robust and sustainable bamboo.
 

Holestar

I made this short documentary about female drag and cabaret performer Holestar – the “Tranny with a Fanny”. At the forefront of the London drag scene since 2003, she seeks through her music and performance to “blur the boundaries between gender, the avant-garde and... pop culture.”.
