Film Synopsis: Kids on a school trip to a museum have a strange
encounter with some mummies. Thriller meets Night at the
Museum in this funny, original take on a grime video.

Training / education? I was self-taught for a few years and decided that a degree may further my opportunities, so I went and studied media practice/production at University of the Arts (LCC). I graduated in 2006.

Most looking forward to in your New Music Shorts film? Producing a film that is thoroughly entertaining & being recognised by the Industry as a credible director of visual arts.

What made you choose 'Slippin'? Wiley is really an unrecognised national treasure, he is at the cutting edge of a musical genre that he helped create and is now global. He is also a role model to tens-of-thousands of kids nationwide but this is not recognised by mainstream media. I believed that I could produce an “urban” themed film with crossover potential to a tune that is catchy & quirky but very real at its core.

What are you never on set without? A plan.

Best thing about being in the film industry? Being able to materialise your dreams and visions. It’s an amazing feeling seeing people excited or entertained by an idea that once only existed in your mind.
