Growing up in both Ghana, Netherlands and the UK, Ebeneza Blanche is a multidisciplinary filmmaker who is quickly becoming a household name in the world of music videos, fashion, advertising, and film. He was recently named Best New Director at YDA, AICP, UKVMA, Kinsale, and Creative Circle.
Ebeneza is most known for his music video for Little Simz “Point & Kill.” The effortlessly stylish music promo is a reimagined homage to the iconic film Touki Bouki while riffing on storytelling tropes in Blaxploitation films. “Point & Kill” has swept the awards circuit and continues to ride the wave of being both a fan and festival favourite winning Best Music Video at the UKMVA and netting him Best New Director at multiple film festivals. It was also the first time a music video has been chosen to be part of the Tribeca Film Festival.
Ebeneza’s intuitive feel with where to place the camera and how to tell a story makes every one of the characters in his films lovable. He thrives in the specificity of the filmmaking details from the casting, location, styling, and performance. He brings his tacit knowledge of his lived experiences, creating a singular body of work that will stand the test of time.
