Works:

My journey into commercials and narrative has taken many detours, including fashion photography, documentary filmmaking, a stint in the music world touring with artists and shooting shows and working as a camera assistant. Many low budget music videos and passion projects later, I’ve developed a distinct style that’s led to collaborations with brands and artists such as Puma, Vinted, Dua Lipa, Doritos, Barbour, Red Bull Racing and Garnier.

As a narrative director I’m passionate about working with talent, exploring script and story and workshopping memorable performances. I curate film screenings, have served as a judge at several film festivals and am the  founder of CHERRYPICK, a platform highlighting the work of the creatives working behind the scenes in film, TV, music, fashion and literature who shape our culture.

Caroline Hajny

I’m a writer-director working across commercials, fashion, music and narrative projects, with a keen eye for performance. I love everything playful, quirky and colourful and enjoy telling stories that don’t take themselves too seriously. My narrative films have played and been nominated for awards at several BAFTA and BIFA qualifying festivals, including the prestigious IRIS Prize.

How I work

For me, story and emotion always comes first - whether that’s a narrative short film, a fast paced commercial or a heartfelt charity project.

I’m a strong collaborator and enjoy both developing projects in the early stages and making the most out of a finished script.
