About

Emily Freda Sharp is a Director who strives to create playful work that doesn’t compromise on meaning, with a portfolio that speaks for itself as to the importance she places on inclusive representation both in front and behind the camera. 

Her background in advertising saw her put her name to the first social-led campaign to win a Cannes Lion - The United Nations’ ‘People’s Seat’, led by Sir David Attenborough. Emily has since gone on to Direct commercial performances from Gemma Collins, Dani Dyer, and Layton Williams, for clients such as Surf, Eurovision, and the BBC - her style often focusing on colourful, camp comedy, with a satirical edge. 

With a sentimentality for the creativity of childhood, she often jokes that if she’s not making a Spice Girls reference then she’s not doing her job properly!
