House of Bricks

Background Noise

I was the director of photography for this ambitious independent feature film shot over the course of 2 weeks.


The film was funded through independent investment and crowdfunding and tackled difficult subject matter such as trauma, sexual violence and the trials and tribulations of growing up. The film is a drama which uses traditional fantasy characters to deliver an important social message - told from 3 different perspectives, I altered the cinematic style for each in order to highlight how a single event can be perceived in drastically different ways


As director of photography I had to operate 2 Arri Amiras, block and direct a large cast, lighting scenes myself and with a small team and deploying various grip solutions.


The film was screened at various domestic and international film festivals.
