Eight signs directing talent Anita Lee

Before graduating from AFTRS in directing, Anita Lee studied art and design at the College of Fine Arts which has ingrained in her practice a love for stylised storyworlds and visually poetic imagery. 

As an Australian-born Chinese female director, Lee is also passionate about telling diverse stories and is committed to furthering more cultural representation on screen.

Having directed projects for brands including Myer, Uniqlo, Qantas, Travelodge Hotels, CGU Insurance, Dulux, TAL Insurance, Macquarie University and SBS, Lee is a welcome asset to Eights’ diverse directing team.

Lee comments, “I am so excited to be joining the Eight family. I love that they are committed to more representation of women on set and proud to be part of a company that stands for that in their diverse roster.”

Eight, Head of Production and Executive Producer, Lib Kelly, comments “We’ve had our eye on Anita for a while now, she is a real powerhouse of ideas and vision. Her background in art and design really shines through in her work. She is a great fit for our team, we are thrilled to have her on board.”
