'Kill The Director' is a short comedic/romantic film (a ComRom, you could say) that tells the story of a young failed romantic named Toby, attempting to woo his office sweetheart Zoe.
​
Based on the song 'Kill the Director' by The Wombats, the film was filmed on location in Hertfordshire, with £2300 raised via a successful Kickstarter.
​
I was the writer and co-editor of the film, that was completed in May 2017. Kill the Director won an award at the Visions film festival, which was awarded by legendary film editor Walter Murch. Moreover, the film was nominated for an RTS London award, and made it to the top 3!
