Frieze Films adds Jonty Fine to directors list

Frieze Films has added a new director to the list of award-winners it currently represents. Jonty Fine, who complemented his cinematography qualification with two years as an editor before starting his career in directing, joins the Rosebank-based production house immediately.
Over the past few years, Fine has delivered a number of commercials for agencies across South Africa and notched up several awards himself including a SAMA, Metro FM Music Award, and three Koras for music videos.

According to Frieze Films Exec, Jo Barber, Fine's strength is his knowledge and appreciation of post-production techniques and effects.

“Jonty's background in post-production driven commercials and his experience as an editor and directing commercials with extensive post techniques has created a unique body of work. I know he has a serious amount to offer creatives seeking a left field approach and a modern edge,” she said.

“My vision is to strike a fine balance between the visual effect and the emotional content,” added Fine. “I am inspired by storyboards that demand out-of-the-box thinking, and that give me the freedom to combine my classic cinematographic skills with dramatic, and often, maverick direction and post-production.”
