about me
My name is Jamille van Wijngaarden. Born on 21-02-1989.
Since last year I graduated as a fiction director at the Dutch Film Academy, Lichting 2014. My final exam film is the comic detective 'Lifelong and Happy'.

In 2009 I graduated from the Graphic Lyceum in Rotterdam for the Audiovisual Design course. Subsequently, I further developed myself into a fiction director during my training at the Film Academy.
With the extracurricular commercial Snow White I won the 'Language Through Lenses' award at the Prix Europa Festival 2012 in Berlin in 2012.
I want to leave my mark on the Dutch film, television and advertising world with great ambitions.
