Editor & Director - live events, films, discussions

I'm Joe and I work in film, performance, photography and events. 

For 4 years I worked with an independent cinema and recorded 200 conversations with filmmakers to create a living, institution-level archive. Some of these now live on the Blu-ray releases for their respective films, as well as on university curricula and online.

I made promotional trailers for film seasons, conveying national film cultures and surprising perspectives: from Contemporary Central America to Hong Kong's Golden Age, from seasons Celebrating Al Pacino to Ken Loach and Ingrid Bergman.

Plus, I formed our house band, held one of the cinema's first craft workshops, and who could forget the micropigs who came to watch Babe.

Currently:

🎞️ Acting and directing
📷 Event photography
🗣️ This year, I hope to publish a photo book, play and record music, and edit my documentary. Please get in touch if you can help!

🎹 In my spare time, I cook, read, and listen to Radio 3 and 4.
