About Jamie

Director.
Cinematographer.

I love stories that are big, heartfelt, true to real life, emotionally complex, naturally comedic, and a little philosophical too. Sunflower Child was the perfect debut to Direct, as it wrapped all of these into a delightful package of romance and comedy. It's a film about a young screenwriter trying to find her voice in a chaotic world. It is aspirational, hopeful, and in many ways mirrored my own journey.

I thought as a Cinematographer moving into Directing, I might get caught up in visuals, but it was easy. I loved finding meaning with my wonderful cast and crew in every element of the film's production. I loved not stressing about lighting fixtures, framing details or colour temperature. I loved listening to everyone else's ideas and the right choice presenting itself.

I'm most delighted by how we managed the team. The atmosphere we created was loving and thoughtful. There are no bad ideas - just the right one. I want to take this philosophy with me throughout my career. There was a sense of joy throughout prep, production and post, and I truly believe that joy presents itself on screen. My mantra was: If we're having fun, it will show - and I do believe it did.

Off set, I read sci-fi, practise tai chi and occasionally help friends tie the knot as their celebrant.
