Jesse Richards

Director

Jesse Richards is a visual magician, specialising in directing and editing fast-paced TVCs and online content. He is equally at home with witty dialogue, cheeky humour, and honest, heartfelt, thought-provoking pieces. His adaptive and enthusiastic (read: boundless energy) approach to directing enables him to extract the best performance from talent, and work collaboratively and effectively with crews to get the best results. 
His work is typically high contrast, with characters popping from their detailed backgrounds. 
He has worked across celebrated advertising campaigns such as Movember's 90s inspired Dial-a-dad series, spruiking a new parenting resource tool for parents, a tongue-twisting dialogue packed comedy piece for McCain's Beer Battered Chips, a sci-fi techy bonanza for TedX Melbourne and a less sci-fi but still techy spot for Reece's design app (oooh fancy).
