Over the past few years he has also been busy developing feature projects based on novels from overseas and local writers. In addition, the company is supported by great technical production crew and by special contributing writer Ronald H Bojtschuk, many of whose manuscripts have been transformed into screenplays. Colin Larsen, the Director of Photography, has a great deal of knowledge of the film industry, in which he is very well-respected. Andrew Shir, as well as being firmly entrenched with Spirit Rider Productions and developing a project with Brian and Colin, is also planning to set up his own company in the near future. He and Colin will continue to play a big part in SRP.

His ambition is to direct the ultimate western.
