Alex is a self-taught director based in London. His work is concerned with the intersection of folk culture, iconography and questions of identity, striving to convey the spirit of a place/time and how this forges the stories and characters within.

 

His first short film Yellow Jumpsuits premiered on NOWNESS and was listed in the 'New Directors on the Cusp of Greatness' category at the 1.4 Awards. His most recent music video for HEAVY BAILE was nominated for the UKMVAs, Berlin MVAs and awarded at M-V-F Brazil. On the commercial side Alex has worked with agencies including adam&eveDDB, HAVAS and Mother for brands such as Bose, Chevrolet, Esso, Mountain Dew and New Covent Garden. 

 

When not working on film projects he likes to draw. One process feeds the other.
