Price James
Total Running Time: 90 min
Hackney-based director Price James is one of the fastest-rising talents in music video making. Having only made his first video in November 2006, his ability to create stunningly innovative and humorous works on a shoestring budget has seen him go on to work with some of the best new music artists today, including The Teenagers, Simian Mobile Disco and Operator Please.
Now signed to Black Dog and directing commercials for Ridley and Tony Scott’s RSA Productions - including that hap-hap-happy Mr Kipling ad - his sights are still set on the next natural step: feature film.
From humble beginnings shot in a friend’s flat, through elaborate pop-up book performance to mind-bending multi-perspective Aussie rockers in capes, Price will be presenting a retrospective of his music promos and fielding questions in an open forum, so come down and catch this visionary genius on his meteoric rise to the top!

Simian Mobile Disco - It’s The Beat
ShitDisco - OK
Operator Please - Just A Song About Ping Pong
