Jade is a freelance director, photographer and filmmaker working within commercials, social and branded content with a focus on sports and community.
Jade brings their own artistic ideas, documentary perspective and a creative flair to each piece of commissioned work. A new talent in commercials, their first football film was shortlisted at the Shiny Awards and was featured in a Directors Showcase at the APA for their first Football Ad .
Open to working with production companies, they are currently freelance in the UK with Visionaries, and CZAR in Belgium.
They have been regularly pitching and receiving briefs trying to win that opportunity to break through from social content.
This year Jade had their first photography exhibition which was featured as August's Dazed Art shows to leave the house for 'Pride of Britain' that included Darkroom Handprints, Painting and a 3 minute Film.
Alongside side Jade is working on their first photography book with Studio Small.
