Alec is a writer/director working across fiction and documentary. He crafts emotionally driven stories with a visual style rooted in stillness, reality, with a melodic sense of tone & pace.

His filmmaking evolved from a background in portraiture and music video, where he developed a sensitivity to emotion, texture, and rhythm, a visual language he's now pushing into longer forms.

Alec is currently directing Searching for Sandy, a music documentary featuring Josienne Clarke, Georgia Rose Lucas, and Richard Thompson. He is also developing two short films: Dog Violet, a satirical 12-minute story about creative exploitation, and Tartrazine, a supernatural 5-minute short told using cursed DV tape footage.

His earlier short films and music videos, including the award-winning short Never Again, have screened internationally and helped establish his tone-led, emotionally charged style.

Alongside his short-form work, Alec is actively developing his feature career. He has written two completed screenplays and is currently writing a third, each shaped by recurring themes of grief, identity, and dark humour, filtered through an instinct for the poetic, the surprising, the entertaining, and the uncanny.

He shoots on a Sony FX6 with a hand-built set of Canon FD cine lenses, chosen not for sharpness but for feeling; glass that breathes, flares, and forgets. His images are shaped by the aesthetic influence of Sofia Coppola, Lynne Ramsay, Saul Leiter, Jonathan Glazer, and Tish Murtha: soft, haunted, poetic.

He is not a cinematographer for hire. He only directs his own films.
