Sophia Ray

Biography

Sophia Ray

Starting her career as a graphic designer, Sophia Ray carved herself a strong aesthetic direction when it came to moving image, with her university film winning a place in the graduates issue of Creative Review. She worked her way into the film industry through a mix of live action and animated projects, working with artists such as Lily Allen and 5S0S, before landing herself a VMA at the very start of her career.  

Sophia quickly progressed into the world of Branded Content and music videos, working with Google, Nike, No.7 and the BBC as well as artists such as Olly Alexander of Years & Years, Raye, Sigrid and Ellie Goulding.  Her boundary breaking campaign for Sex & Cancer has won her a British Arrow in the UK, a Clio in the US and has other nominations pending.

Sophia’s work is recognised for its dreamy and playful nature with nods to a much darker and surreal world with its undertones. Her darker narrative muscle has been flexed with her first upcoming short ‘Triptych’ - a psychological horror film, that is looking to be released later this year and being screened at the Academy Award qualifying festival Holly Shorts.
