Bio

Hello! My name is Jenny - I'm a filmmaker, producer & creative facilitator, with a passion for documentary, ambient & environmental filmmaking.
I'm working towards a more collective, sustainable, community led practice which explores our relationship with one another, and with the natural world.
I’m lucky enough to spend much of my time in wild, natural spaces. I care deeply about protecting them, and I think that film is a wonderful medium to translate the voices of the non-human world in a way that encourages us to listen, and to care.
I currently live in the beautiful city of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, and in the past few years have worked on two documentary feature films along with a number of short documentary & hybrid films. I also produce my own video & film content for a variety of community, arts and conservation organisations.
I'm involved in a number of creative & community projects in the city, including programming & projecting at the Star & Shadow Cinema. We recently launched an 'open mic' film night called 'Shadowscope', offering an opportunity for local shorts filmmakers to share their work on the big screen.
I'm passionate about opening access to filmmaking, and to creativity in general, and would love the opportunity to collaborate on more community arts projects.
Wherever possible, I spend my time out in the hills & crags. I feel most at home in these natural environments, and I've recently begun to experiment with using my camera to document some of my outdoor adventures on rock & on bike...more to come I hope!
Thanks for taking the time to visit my profile.
