Papaya Films Sign Award Winning Directing Talent Favio Vinson to Roster

International production company Papaya Films has signed up and coming director Favio Vinson to its roster.

Paris-born Vinson initially studied economics at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, before changing career direction entirely to embark on a directing course in London. His directing style is characterised by fast-paced, kinetic visuals with dark undertones, drawing influence from iconic filmmakers including Jonathan Glazer, Josh Safdie, Martin Scorsese and Tony Scott.

Vinson has a strong interest in creating beautiful film for purpose driven campaigns and has garnered acclaim, including a recent 1.4 award, for his work for Sea Shepherd with a spot for PETA due to be released soon. 

Pilar Muro, Global Head of Talent, Papaya Films said: “I feel truly enthusiastic about working with Favio. His vision and commitment are exceptional, and at Papaya we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to support emerging talent as they continue to shape and grow their careers. We can’t wait to start bringing some of his ideas to life.”

Favio Vinson added: “I’m very excited to get started with Papaya. I have tons of ideas to develop and I want to make work with a huge impact that will stand the test of time, and Papaya is the best place for me to be!”

Vinson has been awarded at The Fashion Film Festival in London, Amsterdam and Athens and been nominated at the San Sebastian Film Festival, Berlin Fashion Film Festival and Berlin Commercial Film Festival and most recently won silver for Sea Shepherd at 1.4 Awards.

He also recently released a short The Feathered Snake
