Simon has been making films since he first picked up the family video camera at 11 years old. After leaving school he continued honing his skills by working in a variety of on-set roles, such as a production and video assistant, self-shooting camera operator and as an editor. He had the opportunity to direct his first feature 'SHANK' in 2008, a coming of age drama set in his hometown of Bristol, UK. The film went on to play in over 60 film festivals around the world and was released on DVD in the UK and US in 2009. In 2015 his second feature was released, "Judas Ghost", a supernatural horror filmed in a single location and written by New York Times best-selling author Simon R. Green. He continues to develop short and feature projects whilst working as a freelance editor.
