Career

Hill began her career as a wardrobe assistant for film and TV in her home country of Australia. At the age of 16 she moved to Los Angeles and, shortly thereafter, she was hired as an assistant stylist for MTV. She moved through the ranks at MTV and began a career as an independent stylist, working with clients worldwide.[4] In 2005, Hill became the head women's wear designer for cult label Buddhist Punk, and in 2007 launched[5][6] an eponymous clothing line, which was presented in runway shows worldwide.[7] Her collections were often inspired by the styles of the 1940s and 1960s.[8][9] Hill was asked to direct her first music video in 2011 by Julia Stone, based on drawings Stone noticed in Hill's sketchbook. They have collaborated on the videos for the tracks By The Horns, Justine (starring Quinton Aaron) and Let’s Forget All The Things That We Say (starring Shiloh Fernandez). Following these videos, Jessie directed acclaimed music videos, short films and content for Rick Rubin, Chris Cornell, Halsey, Broods, Dean Lewis, Hey Violet, Disney, L'Oréal and NYX Cosmetics, as well as a fashion documentary film for Rag & Bone, with a music score by Thom Yorke.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] At the ARIA Music Awards of 2018 she won ARIA Award for Best Video for her direction on Dean Lewis' music video, "Be Alright" (June 2018).[17]

gollark: According to various people degrees are often just signalling and the actual learned content is generally underutilized.
gollark: Also consider that advancing technology is making random unskilled workers increasingly unimportant and enforcement of whatever laws someone wants increasingly easy.
gollark: I don't know the history of that... very much at all... but how much was that their work versus just circumstances/chance/the political climate then?
gollark: I see.
gollark: If *a lot* of people want change, *and* can somehow coordinate on this, in the face of people trying to stop them, and it doesn't go horribly wrong somehow.
