Rex Russell
Award Winning Director
Content Lead
Video Specialist
With 8 years of experience creating videos that captivate and connect with audiences, I’ve worked across commercials, branded content, and music videos, all crafted with a focus on storytelling and visual impact.
I specialise in leading end-to-end video production—from initial concepts and storyboarding to filming, editing, and delivery. Along the way, I’ve worked with high-profile clients like David Gray and Marks & Spencer, delivering premium results even on tight budgets.
Whether it’s simplifying complex IT topics into engaging narratives or producing scroll-stopping visuals for social media, my approach is rooted in clarity, creativity, and collaboration. I believe the best content leaves a lasting impression—and a good first one, too.
If this sounds interesting, take a look at the work below. It speaks for itself (and uses fewer adjectives).
