Jem Holter
Director of Photography
Director of Photography
Jem is a vastly experienced and highly talented cameraman, whether taking stills or shooting movies, but his first love was creating and performing music. No surprise, then, that Jem's first foray into film was working at Bow Studios in East London in the 1990s, where he was involved in the making of a number of high-end music videos for high-end artists, including Blur, The Spice Girls, Texas, James, The Lightning Seeds and others.
More recently Jem has been involved in several feature-length movies, during which time he has earned his spurs as an outstanding Director of Photography, as well as a highly skilled film editor and special effects maestro (especially when it comes to creating million-dollar special effects with a no-dollar micro-budget!).
Needless to say we're delighted to have Jem on the team, in which he and our director Tumi Jon King now form a formidable creative partnership.
