About Me

"How dull it is to pause, to make an end, To rust unburnish'd, not to shine in use! As tho' to breathe were life!"
"Said Hamlet to Ophelia, I'll draw a sketch of thee, What kind of pencil shall I use? 2B or not 2B?"
I am one half of LCM - A pair of lads who make films for clients and for fun. Check out our showreel:

I love music and making music, and I love art. I also love films. I love my friends and I don't make enemies easily.
