About

Being There Films is dedicated to developing, writing, and producing compelling films and TV series. With a strong network of senior film and TV executives across the UK, US, and beyond, I specialise in packaging and pitching feature film screenplays to producers, production companies, broadcasters, studios, and streamers.

Collaboration is at the heart of what I do. I actively seek like-minded creatives and partners to develop projects that are bold, original, and engaging. In addition to independent productions, I serve as Head of Partnerships and Development at Manchester Animation Festival, leading script development, funding initiatives, and expanding the festival’s business focus.

I also work as a consultant Executive Producer for Make Films, where I contribute to bringing impactful true-life stories to the screen. Our current slate includes a dramatized adaptation of the award-winning documentary Mission to Lars and other projects inspired by real events.

I’m always open to new partnerships, commissions, and collaborations—let’s create something extraordinary.
