Grant Gee

Who is Grant Gee?

Grant Gee is a film maker, photographer and cinematographer currently living in Brighton. He was born in Plymouth and studied Geography at St Catherine's College, Oxford.

He is most noted for his documentary about the British alternative rock group Radiohead, Meeting People Is Easy, which followed the band on their tour for their highly acclaimed third album, OK Computer.

In the early 1990s he had worked on U2's Zoo TV and Zoo Radio, and collaborated with Mark Neale on several projects, including "The Memory Palace", an experimental multi-media project combining film and live performance for the Expo '92.

In 1996 he directed a twenty-seven minute short film commissioned by progressive house band Spooky for parts of their album "Found Sound". The film was displayed on a continuous loop outside the Centre Georges Pompidou as part of its re-opening.

In 2000 he filmed the entirety of the Meltdown festival, curated that year by Scott Walker.

His short, more or less experimental films, including the onedotzero-commissioned "Tel Aviv City Symphony", the documentary "JC-03" about John Cale at work, and the dance film "Torsion" choreographed by Russell Maliphant, have been shown internationally as part of touring packages by the British Council, onedotzero and Film and Video Umbrella.
