Victoria Keon-Cohen is an Australian-born producer, writer and director and the founder of The Keon Cohen Company. She brings stories and ideas to life through film, television and live experiences - from the first idea through delivery.
She develops character-driven film and television projects about outsiders, reinvention and people challenging the roles assigned to them. Her films have received awards in Australia and the United States, including Best Director and Best Narrative Short. Her experience across film departments has also taken her alongside Oscar-winning producer Lawrence Bender, into executive production support on The Accountant 2 starring Ben Affleck, and into costume work for Robert De Niro. She brings that breadth of experience to developing projects and guiding them through production.
As a producer of live experiences, Victoria has led complex teams, budgets and operations. She produced the four-day Aniwa Gathering in California, which brought together 40 Indigenous leaders and 1,500 attendees.
Victoria began her career as an international model. In 2006, she founded the first Models’ Union within UK Equity and chaired its management committee through 2011, working with industry bodies and major retailers to improve workplace standards. The Guardian named her among its “Top 30 Names to Watch as a New Radical.” She has spoken on women’s rights and the modelling industry in New York and London, including at Fordham Law Institute.
Through The Keon Cohen Company, Victoria brings a distinct creative point of view together with the relationships and production experience to build ambitious projects for audiences.
