Anton Du Preez has signed to Riff Raff Films, featuring on the company's Nursery of Evil roster in London, and the US director's roster in the US - marking a bold new addition to the line up.

South African-born and now based in Los Angeles, Anton Du Preez is a director with a docu-style approach to filmmaking, defined by a graphic, stylized visual language and an original, personal sense of humour.

He is known for visually striking, story-driven campaigns for global brands including Nike ACG, Mercedes-Benz, Amazon, and Fjällräven. His work blends cinematic outdoor imagery with playful, human-centred storytelling. 

Du Preez's most recent work, the Nike ACG Field Reports: Dolomites series, aired during the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy and earned him a Silver Cube at the ADC Awards. He has also earned recognition from CICLOPE, The One Show, and Cannes Lions, while his Nike collaboration with NIGO and Levi's is on show at the Design Museum London's NIGO: From Japan with Love exhibition.

"We're beyond excited to welcome Anton to Riff Raff," says Jane Tredget, Global Managing Partner at Riff Raff. "From his standout Nike ACG work to his bold approach to sport, fashion and culture, he brings the kind of craft, style and energy we love to champion.

"From our first conversation, it felt like he'd found his people. He says he's joined the other troublemakers, and we like to think that's exactly where he belongs. We can't wait to cause a little mischief together."

Anton Du Preez adds: "In high school, I remember walking into a house party with friends, and the host's mother at the door said under her breath, 'I see the Riff Raff have arrived.' I feel honoured to be joining such a prestigious roster of directors. After speaking with Matthew and Jane, it felt like I had found my home, with the rest of the troublemakers."
