In 2025, James Lawrence – known online as Man About Country – commissioned me to direct and edit a film that documented his 400km walk around Essex. Supported by Essex Arts & Cultural Fund, I accompanied him on multiple days to film the highs and lows of his journey and edited over 15 hours of footage into a single 75-minute feature film. The film premiered at a screening and Essex and was launched to the wider public on YouTube.
