Craig is a self-made filmmaker who started out shooting nerdy sketch comedy shorts at university. In 2011 Craig self-funded, wrote and directed the multi-award winning short family drama Parrot. Two years later Craig's short action screenplay Trunk, developed with writer/brother Derek Foster, received the Australian Writer's Guild Monte Miller Award €“ for Best Unproduced Screenplay. That same year Craig also produced the highly successful LGBT web series Love Bytes; which has accumulated over 6 million views on YouTube. Craig began work on Overtime in 2015. The horror/comedy concept was inspired by films such as Shaun of the Dead and Drag me to Hell and by his desire to return to his roots in comedy and high-concept filmmaking. Overtime was shot and completed with the assistance of Screen Australia's Raw Nerve program. In May 2016, Overtime had the honour of opening the St Kilda Film Festival in Victoria for its world premiere to an audience of 3000 people. Craig lives in Sydney's Inner West with wife and creative partner Emma McKenna.
