For this one we shot remote interviews in America and Australia with great characters. I collaborated with excellent science communicator and animator Lily Shepherd and we made this short film about the discovery of B and T cells. It was a fun project to work on. You have to be happy when a 91 year old scientist swears (gently) in your film.

'We didn't even think about recording his voice'.
Had the great privilege of telling the story of how researchers and people with ALS are using film as a way of dealing with the impact of terminal neurodegenerative diseases.
I got commissioned by Nature to direct and edit a film about epigenomics. The idea was that the human genome could be thought of like a music score. It isn't just changing the notes that change how the music gets expressed. We managed to bring a talented group of musicians together and make the piece come alive. CP Snow tried to claim science and art were two separate cultures, well roll over Beethoven... we spliced together a mash up to challenge that idea.
