Director Paul Butterworth joins JOJX

Los Angeles-based production company JOJX adds the nuanced directing talents of Paul Butterworth to their diverse roster. 

This is Butterworth’s first US representation, having established himself as a preeminent tabletop director in the UK, Europe, Australia, and Asia.

Butterworth has developed a reputation for crafting charming and emotive films rooted in authenticity. Throughout his career, he has held many roles within the world of advertising and filmmaking, allowing him to distill best creative practices from some of the industry’s most revered directing icons and build his own personal approach to brand work. Over the years, Butterworth advanced his truly unique craft, generating work that is highly technical, ultra modern, and altogether revolutionary. His work has gained him international recognition as one of the most forward thinking and relevant tabletop directors around the world.

Since Butterworth’s shift into full-time direction, his films have celebrated the offbeat and highlighted the irresistible everyday quirks of humanity. Combined with his dynamic shooting and editing style his skills have made him a sought-after director for both narrative and tabletop work. He has helmed extremely immersive projects for Lurpak, Sainsbury’s, Ford, BMW, Ferrero, Etihad Airways, MTV, Caterpillar, and WWE. Butterworth has garnered international awards for his work, including Best Director and Best Editor at Promax Australia & New Zealand.

We’re very happy to have Paul join us 

says Pedro Aragão De Oliveira, Partner and Executive Producer at JOJX. “His tabletop work is fresh and stands out from the traditional, really leading the game. Pair that with his uncanny ability to draw you in emotionally and you have an easy sell to agencies. JOJX has already won two job bids for him, including a Kashi rebrand. We’re honored to be his first representation in the US and introduce him more fully to this vibrant market.”
