Crafted in the height of the pandemic, this film was made completely remote during lockdown. these restrictions did not prevent us from creating a funny, light hearted, and endearing mockumentary around a gamer and his mates trying to make it to the big leagues.

Directing the mockumentary was a wonderful experience, despite the imposing lockdowns, it allowed me to explore the funny side of filmmaking. my previous experience as an editor for similar projects allowed me to truly tap into the comedic timing required to bring the characters to life.
my role as director on the project also extended to building a system for 5 member of the team to contribute their footage, while keeping it organised and tidy for the editor. managing footage remotely was a completely new challenge for me, but I now have a fluid system fro online transfers between large groups, allowing me to edit projects for clients rapidly.
