WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

I take inspiration from everywhere. It could BE a quote from a book, maybe something someone has said to me, the texture of a concrete wall, music and culture both inspire me, I literally take inspiration from where ever I find it.

IF YOU GOT TO CHOOSE THE DESTINATION OF A SHOOT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD IT BE?

I’m quite lucky because I’ve shot in quite a few of the places I’ve wanted to, I.e USA, Mexico, Thailand, Switzerland, but the other places I want to shoot and haven’t had the opportunity yet would have to be either in the townships of South Africa or the favelas of Brazil, I find these types of places have more spirit and soul then the picturesque Instagram locations we’ve become accustomed to, there’s something that draws me to people that come from these types of places, theY’RE so happy, even if by western standards “theIR quality of life” is apparently not as good as ours in the west.

ONE GRIME BAR THAT’S ALWAYS STUCK IN YOUR HEAD FROM OG VIDS?

what’s happening what’s good cuz, what’s crackling I be in the hood blud - ghetts risky road freestyle, he was the best let’s be honest.

TARANTINO OR SCORSESE?

oooh this is way too hard, theY’RE two of my favourite directors, both are iconic in their own way, and have done so much for cinema, I couldn’t possibly say you know. TheY’RE both amazing in there own way.
