Biography

Mark began making independent micro-budget movies in 1999. After experimenting at University and in the years after, he shot his second feature in 2004, The Jigsaw of Life (2005), which premiered at the Phoenix Picturehouse in Oxford. His next short film, Perception (2009), premiered at the London Independent Film Festival in May 2010, the same time he was shooting his third feature, Harmony’s Requiem (2010). After a break from filmmaking to concentrate on his young family, Mark began shooting again 2016 and 2017, making short films with his two daughters. The UK lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic provided Mark with an opportunity to try some green screen shooting and he made two short films, Chopanoc Investigators and the Crystal of Life (2020) and The Chrysalis Children (2020), both of which premiered at the Quarantine International Film Festival. Mark then made a speculative pilot episode for a TV show, Pincer: A Demon in the Red Mist (2020), and his fourth feature film, Optics (2021).

​

In 2022, Mark discovered the emergence of high-quality audio stories. Enthralled and excited about the opportunities, he set about writing a story that would capitalise on the strengths of this medium. Free of the budgetary constraints that had been present whenever Mark had made a film, and focussing on the aspects of writing he enjoyed the most, action and dialogue, Mark had his most creative and free-flowing writing experience with MIOmotion's first audio story, Miracle: Source of Power? (2025)
