Steve Barron started in films as a camera assistant on epic productions such as Richard Donner’s ‘Superman’, Richard Attenborough’s ‘A Bridge Too Far’ and Ridley Scott’s ‘The Duellists’.
He began directing music videos in the early eighties for The Jam, Human League, and Adam & the Ants, his work helping to inspire the formation of MTV. In 1982 he conceived and directed the award-winning ‘Billie-Jean’ – the first single of Michael Jackson’s incredible ‘Thriller’ album. More seminal videos followed. Dire Straits’ ‘Money for Nothing’ won Best Video at the 1986 MTV Awards and A-Ha’s ‘Take On Me’ was awarded Best Director.
Steve’s incredible and eclectic CV includes Emmy-nominated TREASURE ISLAND (Elijah Wood and Eddie Izzard) and cult comedies MIKE BASSETT ENGLAND MANAGER, TEENAGE NINJA MUTANT TURTLES and CONEHEADS.
His TV work includes being lead director on BAFTA nominated THE DURRELLS for ITV and also lead director on BBC/PBS’ AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS starring David Tennant. Other work includes MERLIN and ARABIAN NIGHTS, which have 23 Emmy Nominations between them. Most recently he has directed 4 episodes of ITV’s MARLOW MURDER CLUB.
