Over the past year I have been putting together a collection of films titled ‘The Beauty of the Beast’ The production of this collection of films is not hard work by any means. The work is in finding the shot and waiting for the right moment.

Russell is currently working on various projects including his next short film ‘The Visionary’ a collection on short stories titled ‘Winter Blues’ as well as continuing to produce music videos and promos for breaking bands and artists currently touring the UK
