Sunder Studios
I’m a Director/Director of Photography and have worked numerous film projects and recently commercial film work for startups under Sunder Studios. Below are a few of the projects I’ve written, led, shot and produced.
Kickstarter - SAGA Holobike
I was the Director of Photography for this Futuristic Bike Commercial called SAGA. I led the pre-production, sourcing of gear, location and talent. I shot this commercial film over the course of 2 days in LA. In post production I acted as the VFX support and helped edit and produce the final version of this film here.
Dropbears - An Investigative Special
In 1985 - famed BBC Investigative Journalist Richard Longbottom travels to Queensland, Australia to investigate the mysterious rise in tourist deaths from the much feared Dropbears. Little is known to the outside world about the creatures, outside of their small in nature size and fearsome thirst for prey. Origin of the creatures is set to have come from a Lab accident in which they tried to mate a Koala with a Bat and Jaguar, leading to some nefarious offspring, that through a series of immigration loopholes, found themselves unleashed into the Australian countryside.

Coastal Watchers Film Series
I shot a series of 3 films over the course of 2 years to show the full narrative of the ANZAC’s who voluntarily stayed behind in remote islands to observe and report on Japanese activity. This intelligence helped the Allies win the pacific war with detailed intelligence that was up to date and accurate. A vast majority were wounded or capture in the war and Some Gave All.
