About Me


Lets start with my full name - Christopher David James Peter Richard Parish, the Christopher David bit is an alias I use sometimes, and has gotten itself tagged permanently to the front of my name, though it wasn't given to me by birth. I am as old as it says to the left of this text. Welsh with Gypsy Blood. I enjoy making films and have pursued this passion as a career, traveling wherever it takes me. Its going pretty well, and I dont seem to be too bad at it. I run, with the help of my good friends, a little media house and advertising agency called Pillowâ„¢. We make music videos, short films and commercials. In addition, I am dreadful speller; an early apology should you ever decide its worth reading my blog.

Should you want to know more about myself and the films I have made, please visit my website jamesparish.tv
