Leo Woodhead

Director, Writer

English-born Leo Woodhead moved downunder as a teen. In his final year of a film masters at Auckland University, he went to the Czech Republic and made Cargo, a short about human trafficking; it premiered at the Venice Film Festival. Follow-ups Zero and Cold Snap also explored troubled young protagonists, and were invited to prestigious festivals. Woodhead directs commercials in New Zealand and internationally.

I love what I do. It is always a challenge to find a new way of telling stories and working on the best way to articulate a project. Leo Woodhead
