Another News Story goes behind the scenes of the global news crews as they chase the refugee story across Europe at the height of the crisis. A riveting insight into the human story of a lone Syrian mother's journey juxtaposed against the unraveling and chaotic news story which held the world captive in 2015. It inspires you to re-evaluate our relationship with global media & how we consume news.

​

A cinematic and powerful feature debut by director Orban Wallace, which premiered in competition at the prestigious Karlov Vary Film festival, Zurich and IDFA, before playing over 30 film festivals worldwide and being shortlisted for the best international feature at the 2018 Grierson documentary awards. The film had a small theatrical release before it was internationally distributed.

A journey into the heart of the Irish Traveller community, to record the lost songs of the road and find the last of the fireside singers.

 

James McDonald is a modern-day song collector and has spent years seeking out the oldest surviving Travellers to find the ‘old’ songs before they disappear. This film will chart his return to Ireland to hunt down the last of the old singers, in a journey, which will take him deeper than he has been before into the Traveller community. James knows time is running out before the last of the singers fade into memory taking with them their songs.

In this short documentary, we followed two exciting ventures with the Victoria and Albert Museum reusing and upcycling their excess waste from exhibitions. Spearheaded by Patty O'Furniture we worked alongside the 999 Club and Participatory City to capture their initiatives which gave people the opportunity to team up with carpenters to learn the skills to build bespoke furniture, working with the excess waste from the V&A, which were both displayed in public exhibitions. The film was Exhibited in the V&A and online. I directed, shot and edited the film.

Over the years I have been working alongside Ruben Woodin Dechamps producing live sessions for multi-instrumentalist Cosmo Sheldrake. Our journey started in a laundrette in Brighton for Cosmo's first release, our concept being for Cosmo to perform live in everyday scenarios, the films capturing both his performance and the environment. We have since made films on a fishing trawler off Hastings, a pigsty in Sussex, a horse and cart in the Bulgarian mountains, a model village in Buckinghamshire, a hot air balloon festival in Catalonia, a cider pressing day in Devon and precariously on a plank in the Budapest baths. The films have been awarded Vimeo staff picks and have been featured in many artists blogs.
