Lisette Donkersloot

Amsterdam-based director Lisette Donkersloot studied Art-Direction & Styling at the Art Academy Rotterdam before realising that it was behind the camera monitor where she felt most at home. After leaving her official studies behind, she turned her attention to teaching herself everything about the craft of filmmaking, drawing on her art background to create a unique and powerful cinematic style.

Confident, dramatic and ever-so-slightly surreal – she’s used her signature approach to create music videos for internationally acclaimed artists such as Tove Lo, NAO and Yellow Claw and attention-grabbing commercials for Dr. Martens and the Flower Council of Holland piece that cemented her firmly as one of the industry’s one-to-watch.
