Jessica Fraser

Producer / Director / Writer

An experienced creative, Jess has had the great privilege of being part of teams that have showcased their work at major festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Sundance and Toronto. She loves using storytelling as a vehicle to accelerate change in both local and international arenas and has directed short, impact driven films that have helped raise money for not for profit organizations and social enterprises nationally and internationally. Her company, Section 2 Productions, has also produced and directed a number of branded doc style pieces, commercials, and organizational media for clients across Canada.

She co-created the Mobile Movement Project — a next generation, interactive, crowdfunding and collaborative development platform that partnered with UN HABITAT and USAID from 2009-2013. What inspired her work was making ensuring people receiving investment and aid were directly seen and heard — making the invisible visible. Mobile Movement was a Macarthur Foundation award winner and Jess was also honoured with the BC Council for International Cooperation’s Global Citizen’s Leadership Award for her work in this field.

Recently, with Katrina, she turned her focus to supporting Indigenous Movements in Canada and was one of founding members of One Day’s Pay. ODP has raised close to three quarters of a million dollars over two years – transferring settler wealth to Indigenous led movements and organizations on Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
