Biography

I got into videoing back in 1985, when I did a student exchange with a student in Germany, whose father was a cameraman for a TV station over there. It was only a hobby for me as I was intent on going to college to study pharmacy. I made a few promotional videos for friends using linear editing (two video recorders) after that, but only thought about doing better projects after the event of mini-DV cameras, which allowed non-linear editing without loss of quality. I Produced, directed, filmed and edited a 30 min documentary back in the late nineties for Sligo Aero Club. Since then I have been mainly taking wedding videos for my family, while working in Pharmacy to keep the cash flowing. I now have much more time on my hands and only found out that there are a lot of independent people out there making lots of short films, so I thought I'd try my hand at it. My first short is the one in filmaka's "race against time" competition, which I and my impromptu actors enjoyed making. I hope to make another few over the coming months to improve on my techniques in camera work, editing directing and writing. We'll see what this leads to.....
