During a quiet night shift at a remote radio telescope, young astronomer Charlie detects a signal that should not exist. As the transmission grows stranger, he heads out into the night beyond the safety of the observatory to find it's origin. Written in an afternoon, shot in a single day and edited over a week, Signals is a compact science-fiction mystery about curiosity, isolation and the human instinct to answer when something calls back. The film was also made to raise awareness of the funding cuts threatening scientific operations at Jodrell Bank, home to the iconic Lovell Telescope. Without alternative funding, active radio-astronomy observations there are expected to cease in 2028. Starring Charlie Pollard as Charlie Rüva Jesi as Mel Written, Directed & Edited by Harrison Wild Produced by Douglas Needham Original Score by William Pirie Signals... listen closely.

AmaWaterways | Luxury River Cruise Campaign (AmaMagna – Queen of the Danube)

Selected by AmaWaterways to capture and front a premium travel campaign, I was flown out to document a 7-day journey aboard their flagship luxury river ship, the AmaMagna, travelling from Budapest through to Munich.

I led the creative direction of the campaign, planning and scripting a 7-part shortform content series designed specifically for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. I also appeared on camera as the host, building a personality-led narrative that made the experience feel accessible to a younger, social-first audience. We combined professional shot and graded footage on Sony cameras, with UGC from phones, and action cams to create our story.

The project involved:
End-to-end content planning across multiple platforms
On-location filming across several European destinations
Hosting and presenting throughout the series
Showcasing luxury travel, food, culture and onboard experience
Editing a cohesive series of high-performing shortform videos

In post-production, I focused on engaging edits tailored to platform algorithms, ensuring strong hooks, retention and shareability across each episode.

The campaign generated over 2 million views in the first few days after release and successfully helped reposition AmaWaterways toward a younger demographic, expanding awareness beyond their traditional audience.

Entrusted with shaping a multi-day documentary shoot into a compelling careers campaign, I edited a cinematic brand film for Cygnet Healthcare—focused on the lived experiences of mental health professionals and the impact of their work.

Working from footage captured across a 3-day production, I crafted a narrative-driven piece highlighting the day-to-day reality of healthcare counsellors and doctors, with an emphasis on empathy, purpose, and human connection.

The edit balanced:
Authentic, unscripted moments from real staff
Sensitive subject matter around mental health care
A cinematic structure designed to engage and inspire potential applicants

Particular care was taken in pacing, music, and story construction to ensure the final film respected the subject matter while remaining emotionally engaging and accessible.

The result was a powerful recruitment-focused piece that elevated the perception of careers in mental health, helping position Cygnet as a purpose-driven organisation.

Commissioned following a private screening at Sony Pictures’ London headquarters, I captured and produced premium behind-the-scenes and interview content for the official Venom 3 partner campaign with Gulf.

Working within Sony’s private cinema environment, I filmed guest interviews with industry attendees, focusing on both their professional background and live reactions to the film—creating authentic, personality-driven content aligned with the campaign’s tone.

Post-production included full creative edit of a cinematic trailer piece, combining:

Original premiere footage and interviews

Exclusive, unreleased Venom 3 film assets

Official Sony VFX elements and branded materials

This required careful handling of high-value IP, maintaining brand guidelines while delivering a dynamic, engaging edit suitable for marketing rollout.

Delivered a polished campaign asset that blended documentary-style coverage with blockbuster-level visuals—positioning the partnership within a premium, cinematic context.
