Raised in The North of England and with a background in motion design, clients include Tommy Hilfiger, Hyundai, Converse, New Balance, Zeiss, Adidas, Bayer, Dazed, Huawei, Canon, Microsoft, Sennheiser, and the BBC. 

His ‘The Explorers’ series for Huawei has been viewed 28 million times on Facebook alone, and his promo for the band Oh Wonder was the highest rated ‘Video of the Day’ ever.

Mike’s curious exploration of the human condition led to his nomination at the Young Director Awards. 

As a former agency Art Director turned Director/Photographer, Angie Bird has worked in just about every corner of the commercial industry producing work for clients ranging from Proctor and Gamble to Allstate to Nintendo and countless others. 

Her first short documentary, "You Won't Regret That Tattoo" was featured in The Atlantic, got a Vimeo Staff Pick, and played at international film festivals. She won the coveted Cannes Young Director Award for "Mean Tweets", a commercial depicting the genuine struggles of homelessness, and was shortlisted for the D&AD Next Director award in London for her work on the Myer Give Registry campaign. 

In 2018, her Gillette campaign "First Shave," a heartfelt examination of masculinity in the trans community, won top prizes at Cannes, the Clios and The One Show. 

Most recently, she picked up another Vimeo Staff Pick for her remotely-produced short doc "Club Quarantine."

By honing in on the core emotions of every story, her authentic visual language brings a unique perspective that is rooted in honesty. Striving to find hope while tackling some of life’s biggest emotions head on, her work spans real, scripted, performance-driven and visceral genres and reframes the struggles of the human experience as the common denominator that brings us together.

She is a Young Director Award Finalist and her work has won at Cannes Lion, 1.4 Awards, Sydney Queer Film Festival, Melbourne Queer Film Festival and has been nominated at the AICP Awards, The Webbys, OneShow, Shots, Mumbrella, and St. Kilda Film Festival Awards.

Her short films have screened at 20+ prestigious film festivals internationally, most notably Palm Springs International Film Festival and she was awarded the Iris Prize, the largest in the world for LGBTQI films, in Cardiff, Wales.

Later in life, Jordan began writing and directing theatre, helping performers tap into the essence of a character and the soul of a script. He quickly developed a knack for storytelling, which evolved into a career of writing, performing, and directing plays that toured across Canada.

Eventually, Jordan gave up his salty isolation and moved to Toronto to explore a life in film. He found his way into creative commerce and spent three years as a Director in Residence at Cossette Communications, honing his process and interacting with brands like McDonald’s, General Mills, and Intact Insurance. 

Despite the pressure of the big city, he has kept his Maritime storytelling sensibilities- finding interest and humor in the darkest of places and the most hopeless of situations. 

At the age of 18, he began forging his own voice through the budding art, music, and film scenes of Atlanta. Working with artists such as Big KRIT, Young Jeezy, Migos and Bosco he created raw, emotional work that explores the blending of fiction and nonfiction.

Since then, Litten’s pursuit has led him to Los Angeles, first as an editor and now as a director across films, advertising, and music with the same eagerness to merge reality into fictional storytelling and filmmaking.

His work has been recognized by The Atlantic, the Washington Post, Nowness, AdWeek, Shots Awards, 1.4 Awards, Young Director Awards, and Vimeo Staff Picks.

Focusing on crucial truths embedded in every storyline, he brings a grounded and confident thoughtfulness to his commercial and narrative work which aims to shift culture toward a more humane, just, and inclusive place.

He is a Young Director Award Winner, a 1.4 Award Winner, a 2x Clio Award winner, a D&AD Graphite Pencil Winner, and has been shortlisted for AICP and Webby awards.

Felix is currently working on a feature documentary and is in development on his first narrative feature.

They bonded over a shared love of cinema, music, photography, and design. Since joining forces as a directing duo in 2014, they’ve developed their filmmaking voice together. As they continue to evolve as creators, they seek out stories that explore truth, originality, and social good. 

Working with both real people and experienced actors, Mark & Spencer are able to bring out performance that feel natural and real. This has lead to successful campaigns for iconic brands including AT&T, Adidas, Jack Daniel’s, eBay, MTV, and Lincoln to name a few. In addition to commercial work, they collaborate with many non-profit organizations, most recently directing a global campaign for Doctors Without Borders. 

Before directing full-time, both Mark and Spencer spent time as professional editors for commercials and music videos. This background informs their style, leading to films with a holistic conceptual approach and structure. They still love to cut their own work when they have the time. 

In 2014, M&S founded Brooklyn-based creative production company Curfew. Collaborating with both emerging and veteran filmmakers, Curfew is a creative hub dedicated to pushing filmmaking into the future and inventing new ways to tell stories. 

When they’re not doing film stuff, Mark plays ice hockey and Spencer hugs his sheepdog.
