Description

Next month I’m directing my first feature film, Midgies… which still feels a bit mad to say out loud. Before getting to this point, these are the short films and projects that helped me grow as a filmmaker: Swedish for Hello Zei Wei (Shanghainese for goodbye) The Scarlet Shanghai and Me Islelanders (BBC pilot) Midgies (concept short) Behind (FrightFest premiere) Straw (currently in post) Each one taught me something different, and every project built on the last. Most of these are available online if you want to check them out. If you’re trying to get into filmmaking, just keep making things. That’s how it builds. #filmmaking #indiefilm #shortfilm #director #behindthescenes #midgiesmovie
