About

  • Son&Heir develops ideas into experiences people remember. We uncover the central idea behind a project, define the creative world around it and bring together the right collaborators to make it happen

    Every project is different. Some become live experiences. Others become visual stories, campaigns, cultural initiatives or entirely new creative formats. Whatever the medium, our role remains the same: shaping the vision, assembling exceptional talent and seeing every project through from concept to completion.

    Founded by Creative Director Dilly Gent, Son&Heir brings together a trusted network of filmmakers, photographers, designers, artists, musicians, producers and creative thinkers, building bespoke teams around every idea rather than fitting ideas into a predetermined model.

  • Dilly specializes in conceptualizing, developing and producing original content, from environmental films, music videos, TV shows and visuals.

    Dilly will work with her client to develop an artistic concept and then bring together the most talented creative team to realize their vision. With Dilly’s reputation for discovering new up-and-coming talent, as well as her ability to attract the most distinguished names in the industry, she is uniquely able to cater to each specific project’s requirements.

    After launching her career in London as creative director and video commissioner at Parlophone Records, Dilly gained a reputation for seamlessly matching artists with directors and helping define the visual language of music videos.

    Dilly spent 17 years as Radiohead’s Creative Director, earning a Grammy Nomination for the feature length documentary “Meeting People Is Easy” and numerous additional awards for the music videos.

    Dilly’s love for the film side of music naturally moved into TV. Along with music producer Nigel Godrich, Dilly created and produced From The Basement a global music TV series featuring artists such as Thundercat, Jack White, Radiohead & Red Hot Chili Peppers amongst others.

    Dilly’s other but equal love is educating people about the environment through short entertaining content.

    Dilly created 61 short films for Al Gore’s Live Earth campaign featuring directors from all over the world. While working on the campaign, Dilly discovered her deep love and concern for the environment, pushing her to create projects designed to deliver a green message through music and film.

  • Micro is the new macro. As our world becomes infinitely small, our carefully created content determines how and what we perceive.

    Micro Films are the shortest of shorts. Artistic in nature, vast in depth, and unapologetically beautiful.
