The brawn behind the bold, beautiful and absurd.
DIRECTOR
JONATHAN HYDE
JONATHAN HYDE

Jonathan Hyde is a self-taught American director whose international background–––from his childhood in Vermont to living in multicultural metropolitans like Montreal, Berlin, and Buenos Aires–––figures strongly in his distinctive, visual style. Coming from filmmaking’s new school, the so-called “5D” generation (named after the Canon camera that revolutionized DSLR filmmaking in the early 2000s), Hyde’s textural and experimental work finds new ways of exploring visual storytelling, always with a human story at its core.

A member of the Directors Guild of America (DGA) for over a decade, Hyde began his career in film at the young age of 16, starting in post-production as a graphic designer and visual effects artist before becoming a full-time director at the age of 24. Having directed projects in over 15 countries, his work caught the industry’s attention and got featured in the  SHOOT Magazine’s Annual New Directors Showcase, the leading publication for film, TV & commercial production, and post.

His body of work includes short films like “Bye Bye Plastic”, which details DJ/Producer and environmental activist BLOND:ISH’s quest to eliminate single-use plastics in the music industry, as well as commercial campaigns for brands like Peloton, BMW, Samsung, adidas, Mitsubishi, Modelo, Corona, Toyota, and The L.A. Times.

With an expert eye for casting and a careful, precise pre and post-production aesthetic, Hyde’s commitment to using his creativity to create meaningful change in the world starts with his crew. His projects are set up to provide an equal opportunity to foster diversity by recruiting inclusive, passionate teams with a broad range of experiences and ideas from all walks of life.

Interested in underrepresented, underestimated, and undervalued stories, Hyde is shifting his career into a new direction with his storytelling. He aspires to tell stories that are truthful, nuanced, educational, and empowering.

Putting his actions to align with his convictions, his first foray in long form storytelling is a Amazon Original Docu-Series entitled “Always Jane” that follows a transgender teen and her family from Northern New Jersey as she undergoes major changes in her life.
