Carl is an insightful and considered director who combines a great eye for detail alongside showing a real emotional intelligence with contributors. He has a real passion for documentaries which shows in his films and he always strives to create THE best film possible within the production constraints. Truly one of the best directors I have ever been lucky enough to work with.

Carl is an exceptional director who I have worked with him on many occasions in different genres, and he always delivers fantastic films with real visual flair. He is a great writer who always knows what he wants, yet has the sensitivity to tease out candid interviews from the most difficult contributors. He's impressive on location, able to get the best out of small and large crews no matter how challenging the circumstances. In the edit, he has a true craftsman's attention to detail, with a finely tuned sense of pace, but he's also a natural story teller who never loses sight of the big picture. He's a pleasure to work with and I have no doubt we will collaborate together on projects in the future.

Carl is an extremely skilled and talented Producer/Director who can weave testimony and visuals in a way that brings out the best in the contributors and tells a story in a fresh and compelling manner. As a Director he has a fantastic eye and I have seen him succeed in bringing style and beauty to challenging landscapes and environments. In the edit he is one of the most skilled Directors I have ever worked with him and he can craft a testimony-led documentary beautifully.

I have enjoyed working with Carl immensely and he is superb with contributors and with his team. I think he is a real talent and hope to work with him again in the future
