Alex is a highly capable PD, with a tireless work ethic and very versatile set of skills. He is a strong self shooter, and is very capable in the edit also. Through all this his best quality is a positive mindset that rubs off on his team, talent and everyone in between.
Alex Gower-Jackson was Shooting PD for me on a new series. He filmed some beautiful material on shoots taking him all over the world. He was great to work with- and I wouldn't hesitate to have him work on a project of mine in the future.
Alex worked with us on Good Fortunes as a self shooting Producer/Director. He is a well liked member of the team. Easy to work with and I would definitely seek to employ Alex again.
Alex did a terrific job on a recent observational multi-camera project we shot in Colorado. His technical excellence and creative camerawork, along with his calm manner in a hectic environment, contributed significantly to a successful shoot.
One of Alex's greatest gifts is his ability to 'win over' real characters (reality, ob doc series) and get them to feel comfortable to give you the most truthful and rewarding stories.
Alex is a hardworking and committed director with a great eye for detail and a strong sense of storytelling. In a fast-paced documentary setting, he's able to make good decisions quickly and steer resources in the right direction. His people skills allow him to work well with his crew and to make his subjects feel at ease. He has been a real asset to our production.
Alex Gower Jackson is a multifaceted and skilled director. No only is his work technically top-notch but his people skills and storytelling skills are beyond reproach. Alex was our Senior Director on "Consumed" for HGTV Canada and his interaction with our subjects, whose lives had taken a downward turn, was handled with compassion and empathy. At the end of each episode the involved families thought of him as their friend. As do I. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone. He is a creative visionary.
Alex is a gifted director able to successfully juggle the multiple roles required by our demanding documentary series. He provides additional camera coverage while questioning the subjects and directing the rest of the film crew - all while watching for safety hazards in our sometimes-harsh shooting environment. He creates and maintains excellent relationships with the subjects and is well liked by everyone on the crew. Alex is reliable and accommodating and I would not hesitate to recommend him or hire him again. Alex also has a very strong visual sense - we hired him to shoot our publicity stills this season and are extremely happy with the results.
