About Josjah
There are three things I love in life: writing for film, discovering new worlds (physical and intellectual), and dogs.
My education as a Cultural Anthropologist and passion for film turned me into a creative chameleon. A researcher that masters qualitative target audience research. A creative soul that uses words and images as an outlet to convey beautifully crafted messages.
For over 10 years now, I have been creating compelling video's and texts for marketing and advertising purposes. I have worked for any industry imaginable: arts, law, finance, fashion, online coaching, you name it, I've helped them create text and film that converts.
Along the way I not only perfected my craft in writing and filmmaking, I also created brainstorming methods that help my clients get to the core of their message. In one of those session, a client named me: 'the sweetest devil's advocate you will ever meet'.
If you are looking for high quality copy, video or if you need help to get your message crystal clear so you can brief your content makers, feel free to contact me.
I'm a native Dutch speaker, fluent in English and basic level Spanish.
