Tom Noakes

An Australian director drawn to conceptual and technically demanding projects, Tom Noakes is a graduate of the AFTRS national film school and works from what he calls a disobedient imagination toward cinema that is emotionally rich and visually striking. He directed the launch of Coca-Cola’s first new flavour in over a decade, and Reebok’s Storm the Court, which won a Silver Lion at Cannes for Film Craft Direction in 2019. Other campaigns include Nike, Amazon, Volkswagen, Toyota and The Glenlivet. His short film Nursery Rhymes won the Rouben Mamoulian Award for Best Director at the Sydney Film Festival, and his commercial work has earned a Gold Ciclope for Best Direction. His work has been featured in CNBC, Vice, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Adweek and Shots.
