ROLE WRITER, PRODUCER
AGENCY SELF-PRODUCED
Chandide is a 16" minute downbeat/low-key short film I wrote that was made in December 2011. It was directed by my very talented friend Christian Cooke.
It starred myself, Elen Rhys (The Mallorca Files), Will Sharpe (Flowers), Seb Cardinal and Dustin Demri-Burns (Cardinal Burns), Olly Maltman (The Crown), and Paul Anderson (Peaky Blinders). It was the first short film I ever wrote, and so we decided not to submit it to film festivals
