I’m an entertainment journalist and author, specialising in film, VFX, animation and design. I’ve written articles for Produced By, Film Stories, Animation Magazine, VFX Wire and SideFX. I also co-wrote the upcoming Alien Film Franchise Encyclopedia, out 7 September, 2027, from Titan Books.
From 2013-2021, I was a member of the editorial team at Cinefex, the legendary journal of cinematic illusions. I began my tenure by setting up and running the Cinefex blog, before graduating to senior staff writer on the magazine, researching and writing long-form articles on the making of major motion pictures and television series.
During my time at Cinefex, I covered shows including Spectre, Star Trek Beyond, Arrival, Alien: Covenant, Thor: Ragnarok, The Shape of Water, Black Panther, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Game of Thrones and Terminator: Dark Fate, and interviewed film directors including James Cameron, Robert Zemeckis, Guillermo del Toro, Ron Howard, Luc Besson, Taika Waititi, Ryan Coogler, Justin Lin and David Leitch.
Later I ran the website The Illusion Almanac, where I continued to write behind-the-scenes stories about the craft of film and television.
