Jo Gewirtz
Producer / Director
Jo joined Pukka Films in 2016, having worked as a producer and director of broadcast commercials, online brand content and documentary. She has worked in production for the past ten years, creating films for clients across the public and private sectors and in a range of formats and budget levels. Clients are often as diverse as government departments (the FCO, DFT, BEIS, and the Home Office), charities, financial companies, educational clients and brands such as Prada, Miu Miu, Radley and Clarins.
Jo loves managing projects from conception through to delivery and is equally at ease presenting and developing ideas with clients and ensuring that shoots deliver exceptional content. Whether directing or producing, Jo enjoys crafting strong narratives within documentary and has a strong track record in bringing the best out of participants and interviewees. She has been lucky enough to produce projects which have taken her around the world, running shoots internationally from small documentary crews through to 40-people drama units in: Malta, Kenya, South Africa, India, Pakistan, Holland, Denmark, Italy, France, Spain, Thailand, and the USA.
