Johnny Foreigner Signs Director Harvey Eaton

The director’s agent has snapped up the half-Canadian half-English director after catching sight of his reel. The director is becoming known for his playful approach and agile application across formats.

He studied French & Film at UCL, then after dropping out, landed a French-speaking snowboarding cameraman job in the Alps. Following that he joined an agency in London, then effortlessly moved into filmmaking via a commercials production company where he started editing, photoshopping, encoding…and directing. Music videos, shorts, documentaries, and eventually ads. 

Harvey says ‘Johnny Foreigner represents some top notch talent and I felt the time was right for me to expand and see what exciting commercial scripts are out there.’

Olivia Hirschberg, Johnny Foreigner said, ‘I could immediately see the spark in Harvey’s reel. He has a really playful style no matter whether the product being sold is serious and that’s very engaging.’

Karen James, Johnny Foreigner added, ‘Harvey is a genius at capturing the little ‘slices of life’ which is such an in-demand skill. He’s also adept at mixed media which we see in so many projects right now.’
