Director, creative director and visual artist Joanna Nordahl instils her commercials and music videos with the emotionality and storytelling heft of cinematic features. Her films are beautiful, frequently romantic and unforgettable.
The Swedish-Brazilian filmmaker has accrued a swathe of awards to date, including a Clio for a tear-sparking and heart-warming WhatsApp spot ‘Family Group’, and Sweden’s highest advertising honour: The Golden Egg, for her duly charged sexual health spot ‘Dear Condom’. While her poignant The Pink Ribbon advert contributed to Cancerfonden breaking their fundraising record. Further commercial clients include: eBay, Toyota, Virgin Media, adidas, and Barbie.
A sought-after DJ, Joanna’s euphoric promos include the drone odyssey she created for Four Tet’s ‘Baby’. A recipient of multiple Swedish Grammy’s, her music videos, including the documentary-style ‘Teenage Birdsong’ (FourTet) have also attracted UKMVA nominations.
