Co-Founder and Producer for 28 year old production company and post facility Retro-Juice, Mark is an experienced short-form director with a successful background in cutting long-form drama for Netflix, Apple, FX, Sky, BBC, ITV and Channel Four.
High-end flagship Television drama includes 'The Crown'(Netflix), 'Gangs of London'(Sky), 'The Fear Index' (Sky) 'Taboo'(BBC1/FX), 'Black Mirror'(Netflix), 'Peaky Blinders' (BBC2/Netflix) and 'Sherlock'(BBC1), having also cut series such as 'Unforgotten'(ITV), 'Silk'(BBC1), 'Whitechapel'(ITV1), 'Endeavour'(ITV), 'Mistresses'(BBC1) and the multi-award winning 'The Children'(ITV1) and 'One Night' (BBC1). His diverse cv includes hit comedies 'Outnumbered' 'Mallorca Files' and 'Trollied', as well as family-friendly programmes such as 'Dr Who', 'Robin Hood', 'Privates' and the Bafta-winning 'My Life As A Popat'.
His directing work has focused on authoring "narrative" music videos; the highly acclaimed 'Trilogy' series for Funeral 4 A Friend defined the style of the story telling he was interested in. As such, he was asked to provide a visual edge for mainstream artists such as James Blunt, on the biggest selling album of the last decade 'Back To Bedlam'. His work for artists as diverse as The Corrs to The Kills is symptomatic of his approach; to tell a story in the genre the artist is positioned in. From dance hits such as Max Linen's 'Soulshaker', to the Norwegian ballads of Magnet, narrative drive and the world building has been his creative interest.
He has written and directed a number of award winning shorts such as 'Plastic' and 'Meat', prior to Co-Directing his first feature film '4.3.2.1' which was released by Universal UK and sold to 19 territories by Icon. Mark has recently finished a Sci-Fi Noir 'The Dark Channel - a black and white dystopian thriller about identity and entertainment as a form of suppression.
He has also delivered short call-to-action films for NGOs such as Greenpeace, Global Goals, World Animal Protection, Global Witness and The Humane Society.
