Actor
Kambell's first experience with acting was during his secondary school's year 7 theatre production of Bugsy Malone, where he played the part of O'Dreary .

Although Kambell specialises in acting for screen, he has also worked as a voice actor and wishes to further explore this medium of storytelling throughout his career.
Director
Kambell's directing style is largely focused on the use of dynamic cinematography, using visual exposition and stylized shots as a means to convey emotion, to tell fun and interesting stories, and sometimes to leave the the viewer to come to their own conclusion.
​
Although Kambell is highly focused on the cinematography of his films, often holding the camera himself to find that perfect angle or shot. As an actor, he understands that that giving clear instruction and working closely with the actors on set is fundamental to creating a great final piece.

Director Of Photography
Over the last three years Kambell has immersed himself in the more technical side of the film and theatre industries, Learning and using a wide range of cameras, lights, visual software, theatre tech and more, to better understand not only how the films and theatre performances he directs can come together in a more complete form, but also how the story his acting tells is translated to the screen or stage, and how, as an actor, he can help make the film or theatre creation process a little easier for those he works with.
​
As he spent time moving through the different industry roles, he discovered his love for the role of DoP. The role of planning how story's are told through the use of visual storytelling and technical knowledge. So far Kambell has expanded his knowledge to cover a large range of cameras from Cannon C70s to Black-Magic Mini-Ursas and Ari Alexas, deepening his understanding of how they work, and what methods are used in the process of getting footage from camera to the cutting room.
​
Kambell recently took on the role of DoP in the recent short film Ashes To Ashes, written and directed by Esme Yarrow & Dan Turner, which can be found below.
