About

Hi, I'm Callum Jupp, a filmmaker based in London with over a decade of experience across commercial, documentary and narrative film. Since 2012 I've worked at every level of the industry, building a career defined by range and creative ownership. I direct, produce, shoot and edit and I bring that end-to-end understanding to everything I make. As a freelancer I've delivered work for some of the world's most recognised names: Amazon Prime, Netflix, Channel 4, Amazon Music, Rakuten, Qatar Airways, Penguin Books, Macmillan, Fender, Gibson, Marshall, Brewdog and more. Across branded content, music film, documentary and commercial work, I bring a filmmaker's eye to every brief regardless of scale or format. Alongside my freelance work, I serve as Senior Director of Cinematography at Sonderseen, working with major corporate and institutional clients including AXA, Legal & General, Allianz and the Church of England. I'm also Creative Lead at Coffeehouse Crime, one of YouTube's leading true crime channels, where I research, write and edit content for an audience of 2.2 million subscribers. Previously, as a Board Member and Associate Director at Higham & Company, I led creative direction and post-production across a roster of high-profile brand clients including IKEA, John Lewis and the NHS. I'm currently on the roster at a number of production companies across London, working as director, editor, producer and camera operator.
