I believe our best films have yet to be made.

I’m running for Drama Producer to champion unapologetic, ambitious storytelling and to build a structure that makes it possible.

We are already capable of producing excellent termly films. I want to raise the ceiling. That means actively encouraging scripts that feel risky, technically demanding, or stylistically bold, and then implementing the right systems to execute them properly.

Too often, the most ambitious ideas are softened or dropped for practicality. I don’t believe boldness and delivery have to be opposites.

I believe the drama producer’s job is to select the strongest potential, protect the vision, and promise execution. If a script demands something technically challenging or structurally unusual, my instinct would be to fully commit, rather than reduce.

I would champion uniqueness, creativity, and above all, stories we feel proud of achieving, pushing for an entirely fresh and varied slate of tone and form; films that take real swings rather than safe ones. I would foster a culture where “that might be too difficult” becomes “how can we make that work?”.

Ambition does not mean chaos or impossibility, but does rely on clarity, discipline, and only compromise which enriches the narrative rather than neutralising it.

I’m standing because I care for the legacy we produce and want us to be known for drama that is fearless, technically confident, and impossible to ignore, and I’m ready to do the work to make that standard real.
