“The Ginger Arrows”

This film is about a species of Bee (The Tree Bumble Bee - Bombus Hypnorum) that has recently migrated to Scotland from continental Europe. The Film's goal is to charm and educate viewers, and to encourage people to cherish rather than fear these beautiful little critters.

Director’s Statement

My career to date (30 years in marketing and advertising) has been dedicated to utilising my skills to the benefit of big companies and organisations.

While I thoroughly enjoy the challenge that comes from successfully fulfilling a client brief, I aim to create more from within myself and express my passions through story-telling in Film.

I have produced a huge number of commercial films (corporate work), however, The Ginger Arrows is my first personal documentary short film.
