About me

I'm Ian, a visual storyteller with a background in art direction and a love for mixed media;
blending film, motion design, and photography to shape ideas into compelling, crafted narratives.

Whether it's a brand campaign, social content, or a short documentary, I bring a hands-on approach to every stage of the creative process - from concept development and scripting to directing, shooting, and editing.

With over a decade of experience across agencies, production teams, and global locations, I adapt to each brief with a balance of creative vision and technical skill, working as a director, cinematographer, editor,
or solo creator when the project calls for it.
