The Directors: Seb Edwards

"Seb Edwards was a shy eight-year-old when he was street-cast for the starring role in the 1987 film Hope and Glory. That early experience in film planted a seed and today Edwards is one of the most in-demand directors working in UK advertising. For Campaign’s new video series profiling directors, Edwards takes a turn in front of the camera to talk about the creative process behind his top ads, including Virgin Media, Lacoste and last year’s John Lewis Christmas campaign starring Elton John."
