Most of the work I have done recently hasn’t been available online, but Clear Vision‘s latest product was grant-funded and is an interactive online product made for teenagers for free! It’s called Us and Them: Buddhism and Community. I did most of the camerawork (apart from visiting Bhutan I’m afraid), edited it and co-directed it with my colleague Munisha, who also scripted it and wrote all the support materials.

On the Threshold (2006)

Lotus in the City (2006)

It was lovely working with Maitreyabandhu again, great fun and very harmonious too. (more…)
Big Sister – a dharma documentary (2005)
I really enjoyed making this video with Karuna Trust last

A short video inspired by some music a couple of friends were making at the time. (more…)

Two Men (1989)
The first video I ever made ‘on my own’. A bit more revealing, in many ways, than the title indicates. (more…)
All Out! Dancing in Dulais (1986)
Radical queers at the time were involved with supporting the miners in the 1985/5 Miners’ strike and we in the Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners’ Group made a record of our involvement with a mining community in South Wales. (more…)
Framed Youth – the revenge of the teenage perverts! (1983)
I joined the very ad hoc Lesbian and Gay Youth Video Project in 1982 and we (about 25 young lesbians and gays) made this video about ourselves, our friends and some strangers(!). (more…)
