BASKETBALL BERT - teaser trailer
Bert is little, and sick and tired of being treated like it. So, he’s given himself one last game - to prove to the burly beefheads at his local basketball court - that “the little guy can score too”.
BASKETBALL BERT is a nail-biting, gut-wrenching, heart-warming tale of what it means to stick out where you wish you could blend in.

Stills from ‘AGENTS’, my most recent crack at directing at AFTRS.

Definitely the most challenging production I’ve undergone, but couldn’t be happier with the result and the process overall. Had the best cast and crew to work with and couldn’t be prouder to be a part of the larger ‘The Sharehouse’ anthology series our cohort at AFTRS put together.

Shoutout to these legends for making the episode the best it could be, can’t wait to work with you all again!

Very excited to finally share this cheeky lil short film written and directed by moi! LOAF would not have been the film it is without the help of my amazing cast and crew, each and everyone one of them fucking killed it and I have never worked with a more dedicated and talented bunch, I owe it all to you guys thank you for all your hard work! Big shoutout to @harrypetersdop who absolutely nailed it with the cinematography and understood my vision the entire way through, and to @micaela.osfield whose score took this to the next fucking level.And finally to the only person strong enough to embody Tanner so perfectly, @jacksonhurwood the best actor I have ever seen hands down, and to @yasnadelo @alackofmack who fell into their characters so well they made my job so much easier, thank you guys.
