Hi I’m Jade.
I’m an artist, designer, documentary filmmaker and creative director at Wander & Wonder Studio.
Over the past decade I have built my career creating films for a global audience.
My work is focussed around topics such as climate change, indigenous rights, forced migration, the refugee experience and social justice.
I’ve worked for BBC, Amazon, Sky, Smithsonian, HHMI and Youtube as well as independent production houses - Arrow Media, Cinefromage, Talesmith, Waterbear Network, Passion Planet and Make Waves.
At Wander & Wonder, we create treatments, storyboards, graphics, props, posters, concept artwork, and other digital media for film. We also produce, design and direct 2D animation sequences and short films.
I was part of the story team behind the Youtube Originals feature 'The Letter' (2022), currently holding over 8 million views.
I am also the series producer of the multi-award-winning series ‘Living Stories’, currently hosted on the Waterbear Network. The latest episode, ‘Mother of the Forest: Curupira’, is currently screening at festivals and was created by the team here at Wonder & Wander.
In 2021 I relocated to Senegal to project manage a community restoration effort in collaboration with local NGO, Maison de la Gare (featured in ‘The Letter’), after devastating floods hit the town of Saint-Louis.
While in Senegal, I produced a sequence for the much-anticipated environmental feature doc, ‘Blue Carbon’ and directed our second Living Story, short film ‘Mame Coumba Bang’ (2022).
I now work remotely and with a growing international client base, am always open to new opportunities to connect and collaborate wherever in the world you are!
Other projects of note include the multi-award-winning 3 part series for PBS, ‘H20: The Molecule that made us’ (2019) and the Emmy-winning feature film ‘The Serengeti Rules’ (2018).
