Director Florence Noble has joined the roster of Moxie Pictures for her first U.S. representation.
Known for her irreverent humor and visual flair, Noble has roots in the advertising industry dating back to her childhood when she stole pens from Saatchi & Saatchi Design London where her mother served as creative director.
After attending school in Paris and art school in Brighton, Noble entered the agency world working as a copywriter at TBWA London, TBWA Hunt Lascaris, Johannesburg, and Whybin TBWA, Auckland.
Having obsessed over British comedy for her whole life, she decided to take a course in film and began directing.
Noble has since directed successful short films and commercial campaigns for brands including Pizza Hut, eBay, and Tower Insurance.
“We are extremely happy to bring this talented director to the market. Her work always has personality,” said Dan Levinson, president of Moxie Pictures.
“Absolutely thrilled,” shared Noble, “to join the Moxie team and very much looking forward to getting my mitts on your witty U.S. scripts.”
Noble is repped by Missing Link in the U.K.

Baldwin, the lead actor and co-producer on "Rust," was pointing a gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during a rehearsal when it went off, killing her and wounding director Joel Souza. Baldwin has said he pulled back the hammer โ but not the trigger โ and the revolver fired.
The case-ending evidence was ammunition that was brought into the sheriff's office in March by a man who said it could be related to Hutchins' killing. Prosecutors said they deemed the ammunition unrelated and unimportant, while Baldwin's lawyers alleged that they "buried" it and filed a successful motion to dismiss the case.
In her decision to dismiss the Baldwin case, Marlowe Sommer described "egregious discovery violations constituting misconduct" by law enforcement and prosecutors, as well as false testimony about physical evidence by a witness during the trial.
Defense counsel says that prosecutors tried to establish a link... Read More
