Matt Jaems

Matt Jaems was born on February 21, 1984 in Liverpool, UK. Since 2011 he is working on "Rotterdam, I Love You" which was officially announced in 2015, but still needs to be financed and made. Interested in storytelling from a young age, he would stage plays in his parents' back yard, learning the art of stagecraft from his grandfather and mother (both artists). British-born, he moved with his family to north-west Germany at the age of 10, where a wave of new cultural influences as well as a drastically new landscape influenced him greatly. During his childhood and formative years, Jaems was always creative; working in Germany and UK in theater and music. A life-long lover of film, it wasn't until his early 20s that he began to make films. Once this transition was made, there was no looking back. Jaems is a lover of fine storytelling whatever the medium and as a director/writer has developed an assured reputation for vision and creativity in equal measure: A true blend of cultures is evident in his artistic insight that heralds from a passionate love of US cinema and sense of humor from his British sensibilities and a dash of something spicy from his German/Dutch cultural influences. As a producer, he has a knack for developing impressive and ambitious projects from the ground up with an equally impressive roster of collaborators: Jaems is known for attracting a wide pool of well-matched talent to his projects. Jaems lives in the Netherlands and works around the world. He is also a professional-level musician, playing a variety of instruments in different genres and groups around Europe for fun. Jaems is managed and represented by Willo Schröer at ArtistMan.
