Partizan welcomes award-winning Canadian director Jason Jeffrey to its roster. Known for his story-driven cinematic comedy, Jason’s work ranges from fun and energetic to dark and unhinged, captivating audiences and making him a highly in-demand collaborator for top international brands.

As a director, Jason hones the subtle nuances of human relationships and naturalistic dialogue amid strange circumstances, rooting even the most absurd concepts into realism. His expert comedic timing can be seen in many commercial films for popular brands like Goldfish, Google, and Casino Days, with a Bronze Cannes Lions win for his laugh-out-loud work with KFC. He’s also directed many spots for Canadian entities like Real Canadian Superstore and Choose. CA. Jason helmed ads promoting the Brooklyn Film Festival and the Save Florida Man climate change initiative, which speaks to his innate ability to elevate a cause through story and expand a film’s relatability through his sharp sense of humour. 

Hailing from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, Jason grew up in the industry, frequently visiting his cinematographer father on set. Watching directors work across a variety of genres, he developed a deep appreciation for the craft of filmmaking. His films focus on strong casting and performances, with clear, structured storytelling. In his narrative filmmaking career, Jason won an Emerging Filmmaker Award at TIFF and was nominated for Best Narrative Short Film at the Tribeca Film Festival for his short “A Teachable Moment.” That film and his short “Clown Face” both earned Vimeo Staff Picks.

“I’ve always admired Partizan and how they’ve consistently put out great work for so many years,” remarked Jason. “Every one of their directors is just so damn good at what they do. And each director feels unique within the company. The team at Partizan is full of smart, well-rounded, and funny people, which I think is important because this is a really fun job at the end of the day, and you want to have a good time with the people you’re doing it with.”

Georges Bermann, founder and chairman of Partizan, added, “Jason’s clever eye for humanity makes his films feel like they’re taken directly from life’s most weird and wonderful moments. The bottom line is his work makes me laugh out loud, which doesn’t happen every day! We’re excited to represent Jason and support his future projects, artistic endeavours, and help him spread laughter all around the world.”
