Portfolio
Innocence Short film
Innocence was the first film that Marc truly directed and as such it is rough around the edges and overall unpolished, but it keeps his feel and love for noirs, having experienced issue after issue with people dropping out and technical issues coming up on camera Marc overcame it all to produce the final cut of Innocence, it is the project he believes that laid the groundwork for his skills and taught him important lessons from planning to filming.
Mad Chad Comedy Skit
Mad Chad was a comedy project that Marc worked on and collaborated with Luca Giannelli as co-directors of the project, with Luca focusing on the first few scenes and Marc focusing on the ending scenes. This project is made for laughs and as such isn't the most serious work, it relies on cringe humour similar to the UK version of the office and won't hit with everyone, it was mainly made for the action piece at the end and to work with slow-motion and to try and come up with a fun choreography that is admittedly a tad bit daft
Showreel
Marc's showreel up until June 2025 highlighting some of his work from his year as a HND student that has many different elements incorporated into it from all his previous work and looks to give a broad overview of what he is capable of.
A Round For The Table
In this documentary Marc explores two of his favourite local pubs to hear about how they work, what they have to offer and how they are surviving after covid, throughout the course of this project Marc had issues with camera's missing footage and corrupted files and had to work to incorporate it all into one final production having combined, spliced and edited footage to make the story more understandable.
