Douwe van der Werf

Creativity through the lens of a filmmaker and producer.

"Creativity is intelligence having fun." "Being able to express creativity means having the courage to let it out."

Douwe van der Werf  is an independent writer, filmmaker, creative director and producer living in Amsterdam. He loves telling difficult stories in a simple, human way. He's told core stories for many different organisations over the years, from the IKEA Foundation (NL) to Harvard University (US) and from Apprenance (FR) to Frank Bold (CZ) and many, many others. 

The most important role I play in life is being the proud father of my two teenage boys. I’ve travelled the world extensively for about four years in total and I love cycling, running, yoga, reading, photography and watching movies. Telling ‘stories of positive change’, by bridging gaps of understanding through deep empathy is what I aim for in my storytelling endeavours.
