NINA CASPARI
Film Director & Photographer

About Nina
London-based German filmmaker Nina Caspari discovered her love for the moving image during her Crossmedia Design studies in The Netherlands.
Following up a Master in Audiovisual Arts and Costume Design she developed a highly saturated narrative style.
The bold and poetic portrayal of women with a magical-realistic aesthetic, spectacular styling and sweet but eerie narratives have been the centre pieces of her film and photography work.
Nina Caspari's work as freelance filmmaker and artist ranges from close work with clients in video and creative direction to imaginative and experimental fine art, portrait, fashion and beauty photography.

"Nina’s natural connection and understanding of music is one of the many reasons I love collaborating with her." - NATALYA, singer-songwriter


"Nina is an admirable talent. She is able to visualize what she has in her mind using special and innovative methods. Reality is somewhere. Fantasy will take her anywhere." - Johan Visser, Founder of Idiot Records & Graphic Illustrator


"Nina's directing sensibilities are unique and powerful. I'm a big fan of her ethereal aesthetics and art direction and hauntingly beautiful cinematography. Strong female characters are at the centre of much of her work and she has a strong understanding of commercial content whilst not losing sight of her artistic vision.
She's also, importantly, a really lovely person and a pleasure to work with."
- Kim French, Head of Marketing at Preen, Founder of Edit Girls
