Testimonial

"Dan's understanding of rhythm is extraordinary. There is comedy, pathos and nuance in the finished product which owes everything to Dan's keen eye and shrewd taste. When you add to that his skill at moving between set-ups, managing to offer a range of looks whilst landing the relevant story beats clearly, you know you're working with someone with places to go."
