Beyond

Charlie Thorne is a director best known for combining stunning visuals with nuanced performances from real people. His standout work lives confidently on the border between narrative and documentary, often blending actors and non actors to achieve authentic and naturalistic performances.

He was nominated for Best New Director at the Kinsale Shark Awards in 2016 for his film ‘Live for Today’ for the Alzheimer’s Society which has been used in UK education settings to teach families about the early stages of living with Dementia. Since then, his career has gone from strength to strength, directing memorable campaigns for Airbnb, Dettol, LEGO, LinkedIn, Purina, Air China, Cancer Research UK and the National Trust.

Charlie’s work for the Scottish Association for Mental Health – Going to be – saw him pick up multiple awards and industry accolades through an unflinching look at the children’s mental health epidemic. His campaign for the People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals tells the heartwrenching story of a young family struggling to pay vet bills during the cost of living crisis.

Charlie is equally confident working across a broad spectrum of human stories.
