Tom Wakeling is an award-winning freelance director from London.
Known for playful, offbeat, visual humour, Tom has a knack for staging the outlandish in otherwise ordinary settings. The results are often heightened comic situations that are at once unexpected, delightfully absurd, and yet believable.
Tom’s trademark consists of authentic performances and stunning cinematic frames. He has a keen eye for relatable casting and elicits warm and witty performances that are infused with positivity.
A design graduate, Tom learned his advertising craft at The Outfit and Publicis, while simultaneously honing his visual storytelling in sketch comedy and music videos.
He has since been sought out for brands such as Oreo, Samsung, Canon, TUI, EE x Apple and Google.
Tom loves to bring ideas to life, to make beautiful films that make people feel - and he can’t wait to make something amazing with you.
