Director Luc Rëso Janin Joins Johnny Foreigner

Luc Rëso Janin has joined the Johnny Foreigner family. Luc is an immensely talented creative force, with expertise across a wide range of disciplines. Born and raised in the Paris suburbs, Luc was deeply influenced by and immersed in the burgeoning skateboard and graffiti subcultures of the '90s. He studied Fine Art and Graphic Design before launching his career as an illustrator and graffiti artist under the name Rëso, with a particular passion for creating large-scale murals.

After relocating to London, Luc delved into motion graphics and unconventional 'DIY' filmmaking, working with clients such as MTV. His work in directing music videos and commercials marked a transition towards live-action and performance. Luc has a passion for capturing the raw authenticity of live-action footage while being equally dedicated to post-production and in-camera techniques. His ability to blend these technical skills with his artistic influences is one of his greatest strengths.

Luc has directed such campaigns for Lego, Honda, Pepsi and Adidas to name but a few.  

Luc comments, ‘I’m looking forward to embarking on this new journey with Olivia and Anna, as I instantly got such good vibes from them. And good vibes have always lead me to good things. So watch this space, sit back and relax!’ 

Johnny Foreigner MD, Olivia Hirschberg adds, ‘Luc’s creative flare is infectious. Nothing is impossible and watching him immerse himself in a brief, you just know that it’s going be a unique and inspiring end result!’
