Jamie has a boundless passion for creating both still and moving images and he understands the needs of all the departments involved. He has spent over 30 years in the film industry working as a director and visual consultant on documentaries, TV commercials and feature films. He is also a travel and natural lifestyle photographer and his pictures have appeared in numerous International publications and exhibitions. He has had many International clients including Aardman Animations, Dreamworks, Oxford Scientific Films, Discovery Channel and National Geographic. He has directed over 200 TV commercials and 20 documentaries, including his own film, ‘Jimmy’s Kitchen’, a documentary about Jimmy Pham, a humble and compassionate man that helped the street kids of Hanoi in Vietnam by setting up KOTO, a restaurant and training school to provide working opportunities for them. The film was shown on the ABC to 1.9 million viewers. Jamie prides himself on being at the forefront of the latest technological advances, and has experience in both in-camera and post production visual effects. He was the visual effects set supervisor for Framestore-CFC in Hollywood on the Dreamworks feature film ‘Paulie’, a movie about a talking parrot, which had over 300 visual effects shots in it. More recently he was the visual effects consultant for Prospero Productions in WA on the National Geographic TV special ‘Death of the Mega Beasts’. He has also acted as a visual consultant for other directors, producers, production companies, advertising agencies, post-houses, visual effects companies and museums and has worked on a diverse range of productions, events and exhibitions. He created two films for the ABC-Natural History Unit and Museum Victoria that were designed for five vertically stacked screens, set into a huge blackened tree trunk in an outdoors exhibition environment. The first film follows a forest through a bushfire event, then through its regeneration over several hundred years, featuring the plant and animal changes at the various stages of regeneration. The second film looks at bushfire events from a human experience perspective, focussing on human responses to bushfire using contemporary and historical footage. When you hire Jamie, he immediately becomes part of the creative process and uses all his specific talents and expertise to help you turn your ideas into productions that will create the dramatic impact you're looking for. He is a lateral thinker and comes up with ingenious ideas and inventive images at the script and storyboard stage, provides practical advice and alternative shooting options on location and intuitively finds creative solutions to production dilemmas.
