Hiya, I'm Jack.
I'm a filmmaker, originally from Nottingham, now based in London.

I've been creating my own films since I was 16, starting out with comedy duo Jack & Dean on YouTube, garnering over 75 million views. The highlight was the production of two seasons of 'Jack & Dean of All Trades', co-starring BAFTA winner Jessica Hynes.

My Oscar-qualifying short film 'The Second Time Around' starring Caroline Goodall and Hannah Onslow is currently available on Channel 4.

I've wrote and directed for CBBC and Comedy Central.
