Biography
Jesse is a Melbourne and Sydney based director/editor who specialises in online content, short films and music videos. Jesse feels at home with fast-paced dialogue, awkward humour, crazy sci-fi landscapes and contrastingly, some down to earth dramas. Make ‘em laugh, make ‘em cry. He’s fine with either or both at the same time. In advertising, he has worked across award-winning campaigns such as ANZ’s GAYNZ which took home gold at Cannes, #holdtight which brought back a bronze lion, Victorian Coast Guard’s Seabay, Nissan's Memory test, Red Cross’ 42 and She Gives Birth, Movember’s UnMute and DFATS’ The Most Interesting Job Interview, all of which nabbed a bunch of awards and nominations. His short film Where We Live has been selected into over 30 festivals worldwide and won some metal at LA Shorts, Hollywood screenings, Sydney World Film Fest, South London Shorts, Asia International Film Fest and Canada’s Vaughan International Film festival.
