Anatole is a London-based director specialising in documentaries and branded content.
Having started his career as a documentary photographer, Anatole’s work particularly focuses on the interplay between documentary naturalism and a more intentional approach to cinematography. His branded work aims to bring authenticity to a brand’s narrative, by exploring genuine human stories through the lens of the brand.
Whilst first and foremost a director, Anatole has worked variously as a producer, editor, and cinematographer. As a result, he approaches a project according to its needs, sometimes shooting solo and at other times working with a crew.
He is particularly interested in exploring themes relating to the climate crisis. As Creative Director, he was on the founding team of RE:TV, a sustainability channel established by HM The King in 2020.
Formerly a tutor at UCL's MA in Immersive Factual Storytelling, Anatole is also an experienced 360VR filmmaker.
Anatole is mixed British Chinese, and grew up between the UK, Hong Kong, and Japan. He is a cofounder and Creative Director at REN Studios (www.renstudios.com), a creative studio with particular expertise in the science and tech industries, and which specialises in non-fiction storytelling across documentary film, 3D animation, and VR/AR.
