He was also production assistant for " The Seeds of Doom " and " Warriors ' Gate " . His directorial credits include episodes of the spin - off series " The Sarah Jane Adventures " . The first " Doctor Who " story that he directed was " The Caves of Androzani " , although he also performed uncredited directorial work on " Warriors ' Gate " during the short period where credited director Paul Joyce was fired from production . His work on " The Caves of Androzani " was quite notable for his highly innovative directorial style at the time . Unlike his predecessors , who would observe filming from a booth and relay their instructions via the production assistant on the floor , Harper would work from the actual set , giving instructions to the actors in person . Additionally , Harper utilised more diverse and cinematic shots , offering freer and more dynamic camera control in filming . His energetic , personal style of directing was widely praised by the show ' s staff and audience , with Peter Davison himself stating that he would ' ve stayed on the show longer had Harper ' s methods been more prevalent throughout his tenure ( DCOM : " The Caves of Androzani " ) . He had an uncredited on - screen appearance during the mindbending contest in " The Brain of Morbius " as a past incarnation of the Doctor .

However , the episode was abandoned when the show was put on hiatus . ( INFO : " The Mysterious Planet " ) In 1993 , he had begun work to direct the planned 30th Anniversary film " Lost in the Dark Dimension " , written by Adrian Rigelsford .

Harper has written about his experiences in directing " Doctor Who " in his book , " Calling the Shots " , co - written with Rigelsford . The " Harper treatment " . Graeme Harper has a penchant for including a distorted image of a main character in most of the stories he has directed . It has occurred often enough for it to be considered something of a directorial " signature " . Characters are seen through magnifying glasses in " Rise of the Cybermen " , " Army of Ghosts " , " The Unicorn and the Wasp " and " Utopia " , seen in reflections in " The Caves of Androzani " and " Turn Left " and through a curved window that gives a fish - eye effect in " Journey ' s End " .
