Director Trevor Clarence Signs with JOJX for Commercial Representation

Global director, Trevor Clarence, has joined Los Angeles-based production company JOJX, where he’ll be represented as a commercial filmmaker. Specialising in comedy, Trevor is known for crafting unforgettable characters in his award-winning films. 

Born in South Africa, Trevor worked professionally as an international stand up comedian and actor before establishing a career in filmmaking. At the age of 25, he directed and co-wrote Straight Outta Benoni, one South Africa’s most successful feature films ever, which remained number one at the box office for three consecutive weeks. 

Sought after for his fresh and interesting spots, Trevor has built rooted relationships with agencies around the world. He has yielded campaigns that have aired on almost every continent, working with brands such as Amazon Prime Video, McDonald’s, Pond’s, Coca Cola, Haier, Aldi, Toyota, Virgin Mobile, Nando’s, Carlsberg, Cadbury’s, BP, VW, Heinz, Renault, Lucozade, McCain, Europcar, MTV, Fanta, Jet Air, and Total. His work has earned him numerous accolades, including being voted Young Gun of the Year in Australia.

“We’re so lucky to have him!” says Jackson Morton, founder of JOJX. “Trevor’s a very established, sought after director, and we can see why. His understanding of comedy goes beyond directing. It’s in his nature, which is why he’s so brilliant at making the absurd absolutely sublime every time.”

Trevor says on joining JOJX, “I’m fortunate enough to love what I do and I love working with JOJX so far. As long as they never find out about that incident in 2017, I’m sure we are going to have a long relationship and make great things together."

Additionally, Clarence co-owns and co-manages the successful South African production and service company, Your Girlfriend.
