Genetics is an 18 minute short film that recently held its world premiere at the 67th annual Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France. As writer, director and producer I drove the project from conception through multiple script drafts, shooting with a highly experienced cast and crew and in post production to a world class standard as accepted by the Cannes Film Festival. Arguably the worlds most prestigious film festival, Cannes provided the perfect backdrop for a world premiere of the film. Working with highly experienced crew from Mick Jones Media, I planned the logistics of the film shoot over several months, squeezing what was potentially four shooting days down into two.
