Andrew “Jazzy” Jasiura

Andrew “Jazzy” Jasiura is a photographer and filmmaker originally from Western New York. Jazzy has always been a quiet person, so when he picked up a camera for the first time in 2014, he learned that he could let the pictures speak for him.

He got involved in RXNIN in 2017, helping the collective grow visually as the lead photographer. As the group got more gigs, Jazzy switched his camera into video mode and began his career as a photo/videographer. However, he credits his experience in Tijuana filming the Documentary for HUMANO as the moment he became a filmmaker. He is currently developing a series of documentaries comparing the ongoing protest movements in Hong Kong and the United States.

Andrew has grown as an artist, expanding his network to have worked with Robin Bell, Solomon Renfro, Stretch Dynamo, Seagraves, Real Fake Band, and Glover Official just to name a few. He has also done photo work for the environmental non-profit, MobilizeGreen. Jazzy grew into his role as Creative Director in 2018.

Jazzy is known to be a lighthearted intellectual, always known for his curiosity and desire to explore every angle of a story. While maintaining a hold on the abstract side of art, Andrew makes a strong push for investigative journalism, hoping to amplify the voices of the people whose stories need to be heard. Jazzy wants his art to be powerful, often uncomfortable, but always inspiring questions. His style of direction aims to drop the audience into the scene for them to experience it, rather than simply watching a screen.
