Paul is an incredible artist and professional who has delivered several products for us in the past. He has a great conceptual imagination along with a cinematic understanding of narrative and for these reasons, working with him has inspired us to set our sights higher with our product.
Oh; he's also a great person and we all know how much fun our work becomes when we share that creative time with great people.

Paul is extremely professional at what he does – from the initial idea stage to the full production. As well as this, he is incredibly easy to work alongside – he’s creative and always pushing forward with new ideas, which is integral to the work we do. I’ve worked with Paul in the past across my own businesses, and currently, for campaigns with my clients. And I can absolutely say that I’m really looking forward to the next project we work together on!
Daniel Greener
Camile Thai Marketing Manager
I worked with Paul for a selection of recipe videos and two different april fools videos for Camile Thai. The videos were a massive success reaching over 100,000 views nevermind being entertaining, on brand and incredibly well produced.
Paul himself is a total pleasure to work with. We gave him a loose idea of what we are looking for and he developed the concept from that into scripts and eventually production.
I genuinely couldn't recommend working with him more.

Paul came in at very short notice to create an amazing short video of our Laundry exhibition opening. It was innovative, professional, stylish and really captured the feel of the night. Paul was extremely accommodating, flexible, friendly and incredibly good value. He gave us far more than we expected and is clearly someone who cares deeply about making things to the highest standards. I would work with him again anytime.

He worked well with the client too - managing expectations while remaining open to their suggestions. Paul is multi-talented and fun to work with. Would 100% hire again!

Easy to work with and open to conversation and collaboration his versatility is an asset and end results always surpass expectation. I look forward to working with Paul again.
Sarah Jane Scaife
Actor & Director
Paul is a video artist and photographer that not only documents exactly what you ask for but in ways that add to your own creative input in an original but not intrusive way. You give him the outline and he knows how to explore the topic in a more detailed and inspiring way than you have outlined. However he never forces his artistic ideas on the project but works with you to help you realize your goals in the best way possible. I highly recommend him not only artistically but in how he slips in to the project without a ripple.
