Alexander Hammer

Alexander Hammer (M.A., film and television, 2006) is a director and editor who explores many dimensions of storytelling in his work, which spans scripted films and TV series, documentary features, music videos, interactive content, experiential storytelling, and live performances. Sparked by his last documentary film experience with Amy Schumer, the HBO Max series Expecting Amy, Hammer's passion for character and storytelling has grown exponentially, with the two of them reteaming to tell a new story in the documentary film Jenn Solo. In bridging the film, music, fashion, and performance industries, Hammer's work has taken him all over the world. Through those experiences and collaborations, he has developed a unique point of view with how to bring unscripted stories to life. Hammer's selected credits include the Grammy Award-winning Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé, Beyoncé's feature-length visual album Lemonade, and the concert films The 1989 World Tour (Taylor Swift), On the Run Tour (Beyoncé and Jay-Z), Rebel Heart Tour (Madonna). While continuing to work with these artists, Hammer has also partnered with musical stars like Lizzo, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Sia, and Nicki Minaj on a variety of projects.
