Bringing your
story to life

When I'm not deep in my own projects, I love helping others bring theirs to life. I offer limited consulting to filmmakers, producers, and media professionals who want someone with directorial and producorial experience genuinely invested in the project from the inside.

Let's Talk

Every great project starts with someone willing to ask the hard questions early.

I've spent my career working across television, film and media — navigating documentary, narrative, digital, and international work. What I bring to consulting is not a formula, but a practiced eye and a genuine stake in your success.

What I Offer

Areas of Consulting

I work with a small number of projects at a time to ensure each one receives real attention — not a checklist.

  1. 01

    Development & Story

    Script analysis, concept development, structural feedback, and pitch preparation. Whether you're at outline stage or in rewrites, I help you find the spine of the story.

  2. 02

    Producing Strategy

    Budgeting, scheduling, talent negotiations, co-production structures, and financing strategy. I help producers think clearly about the business of making work.

  3. 03

    International & Festival

    Positioning your project for international markets, co-production treaties, festival strategy, and distribution pathways — particularly across documentary and narrative forms.

  4. 04

    Digital & Emerging Platforms

    Understanding where your project belongs — and how to position it — across streaming, digital-first, and hybrid distribution models.

  5. 05

    Creative Direction

    Helping directors find and protect their vision through production pressures. Visual language, tone, and the choices that make a project distinctly itself.

  6. 06

    Project Unsticking

    Sometimes a project just stalls. I help identify why — creative, logistical, or relational — and find a clear path forward.

The Process

How We Work Together

Straightforward, focused, and built around your project's actual needs.

  1. 1

    Initial Conversation

    We talk through where you are, what you need, and whether we're the right fit. No obligation.

  2. 2

    Scope & Agreement

    I propose a clear engagement structure — session-based, project-based, or ongoing — with transparent terms.

  3. 3

    Deep Work

    We get into the real material: scripts, budgets, decks, edits, strategies. Hands-on, candid, and specific.

  4. 4

    Ongoing Support

    Depending on the engagement, I remain available as the project moves forward — questions, pivots, decisions.

Who This Is For

The Right Fit

I work best with people who are serious about their work and willing to hear honest feedback.

  1. —

    Emerging Filmmakers

    Directors and producers who have something real to say but need help shaping it — structurally, commercially, and creatively.

  2. —

    Mid-Career Producers

    Experienced producers navigating a new genre, market, or scale of project who want a seasoned collaborator to think alongside.

  3. —

    International Projects

    Projects looking to cross borders — in co-production, in story, or in audience — who need someone with real international perspective.

  4. —

    Passion Projects at Risk

    Personal projects that matter deeply and need protecting — from budget pressure, from scope creep, from losing their original voice.
