Kaz Ové
Born in London, lived in Kingston Jamaica and Port of Spain Trinidad before leaving home at 17 and returning to London to Study, Kaz is the last of five children fathered by acclaimed filmmaker and photographer sir Horace Ové. From such prestige filmmaking lineage, it’s not surprising that Kaz was introduced to the idea of the Kuleshov effect and Eisenstein’s theories on montage at around 9 or 10 years old.
After working as a director/editor on music videos and commercials for a few years, his director mates kept asking him to edit their projects and eventually Kaz fell in love with editing, and has been editing full time ever since.
Kaz has cut projects for the likes of Akon, Stormzy, Burna Boy, SteffLondon, Chase+Status, Dizzee Rascal, Apple Music, Bailey’s, Ea Sports, Adidas and Levi’s among others.
When not editing Kaz is working on creating video art installation pieces and perfecting signature dance moves for private house parties the world over.
