    Production company JOJX has brought filmmaker Pedro Pinto aboard its roster for exclusive commercial representation in the U.S.

    Pinto graduated from the National Film and Television School in London and is a writer and director of short films, music videos, commercials, and other visual content. His visual effects experience combined with a background in theatre and acting lends an adroitness to his direction of talent. His credits span such global brands as Starbucks, Google, Nespresso, Coca-Cola and McDonald’s.

    “Pedro brings versatility to his directing, mixing technical mastery with natural storytelling,” said Joe Care, executive producer and partner at JOJX.

    “I am eager to open up more opportunities in the U.S. with JOJX,” said Pinto. “I have so much respect for the work they do and the other directors they represent.” 

    Prior to joining the L.A.-based JOJX, Pinto had been handled in the U.S. by Sandwick Films. He is currently represented for commercials by Cartello Directors in Asia, the Middle East, Germany, and Italy. In Portugal, he is repped by Krypton Films.
