director biography
Having burnt a hole in the roof of the house at the age of 13 shooting his first short film, entitled 'Fire-God' (due to some ill-advised 'in-camera' pyrotechnic visual effects), Joseph has been making and creating films from a young age. Joe’s first foray into ‘incident-free’ film-making began in London's live music scene, creating acclaimed performance documentaries for acts such as Q-Tip, Tinie Tempah, Weezer, Kate Tempest and Jurassic 5. Since then, his love for music, poetry and comedy has informed and framed Joe's lyrical realism, wry visual humour and cinematic style.
