*Some of the recent brands I've had the pleasure of crafting visuals with.
STRATEGIC CREATIVE
While documentary filmmaking is Craig’s preferred medium, he is also highly experienced in producing premium content for both local and international brands.
From solo projects that require a single creative to seamlessly integrating into larger productions as a camera specialist, Craig’s versatility enables him to adapt to any production scale.
With a fully equipped in-house gear stable, Craig offers an all-in-one, high-quality, and affordable video solution, making him a convenient and cost-effective choice for any project.​
Craig excels in creative concepts, storyboarding, and detailed shot lists, but what truly sets him apart is his ability to translate a brand’s strategic objectives into an immersive end-product.
As the founder of Outland Films, Craig is deeply experienced in production planning, working closely with teams to develop core timelines, movement orders, and logistics. His meticulous approach ensures every project is executed with precision, efficiency, and a seamless workflow.
AERIAL CAMERA OPERATOR
Drones and UAV's have changed the landscape of modern media.
From single-op fly and film scenarios to dual op collaborations, Craig’s experience as an aerial camera operator spans large TVC’s and Netflix films as well as small-scale digital destined productions.
Over the years, Craig has operated both traditional cinematic setups as well as gimbal FPV applications.
EXPERIENCED EDITOR
Ranging from scripted stories to moving image montages, Craig's editing offers great flexibility in the outcomes on offer.
Each edit starts with intricate timeline development. Once the foundation is laid, each frame is then brought to life through rich colour and considered contrast.
To close things out, Craig introduces energetic and impactful sound design with one goal in mind, an all-encompassing sensory experience.
"Our task to create premium global content in a short period across several locations with multiple vehicles and many products was no easy one. Craig and the whole production team excelled on the project from start to finish. The planning and execution was carried out with military precision and the attention to detail requested was adhered to in the finest detail.
It was a pleasure to work with such a professional, dedicated and hard working team.
When we go back for the next one, Craig and his team will be our first choice."
