Jane Pollard (born 4 November 1972 in Newcastle, United Kingdom) is an English director, visual artist and director of photography.

In 2014, she won the Director Award, for 20,000 Days on Earth, at the Sundance Film Festival. In 2015, she won the Douglas Hickox Award for Best Debut Director, 20,000 Days on Earth. In 2016, she won a Bafta for Best Drama Series for Murder.^[1]

Jane Pollard graduated from Goldsmiths College, with a Bachelor of Fine Art & Art Theory in 1995 and a Master of Fine Art in 2004.

She met Iain Forsyth, also an art student, at Goldsmiths College in London. They collaborated in artistic performances including sound installations and visual creations. The so-called "live" sessions and more generally everything that includes music are frequently at the heart of their compositions.^[2]

Following eighteen-months of preparation, the stage performance Rock 'N' Roll Suicide was presented during two performances at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London, on July 2 and 3, 1998.

Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard chose to transcribe in microscopic detail, David Bowie's latest and legendary performance as Ziggy Stardust made twenty-five years earlier. Between virtual and simulated reality, the event is intended to be a criticism of how fame, authenticity and nostalgia can operate in contemporary culture.

Actor Steve Harvey plays the role of Ziggy Stardust. He is accompanied on stage by the musicians of the band The Spiders From Mars and in particular the young jazz musician Tom Cawley. The seven costumes present in the show were recreated by Natasha Korniloff, who had played with David Bowie in Lindsay Kemp's mime troupe. Using the documentary filmed by Donn Alan Pennebaker as well as a handful of bootleg recordings, the artists undertook to gather everything that had taken place in 1973.

The Silent Sound project begins as a simple live performance of the St. George's Hall before being programmed at the Liverpool Biennale in 2006.

The work is based on the relationship between music and psychological experimentation, based on techniques from the Victorian session room and the pseudo-science of subliminal communication. The performance revolves around the silent sound machine, created by the artists and aimed at integrating a subliminal message into a piece of music. The original music is composed by J. Spaceman, otherwise known as Jason Pierce of the British group Spiritualized.

Silent Sound was exhibited for the first time in London from February to March 2011, as part of Publicsfear, Jane Pollard and Iain Forsyth's first artistic retrospective at the South London Gallery.

On May 24, 2013, the Bish Bosch: Ambisymphonic installation made in collaboration with co-producer Peter Walsh and musician Scott Walker was presented for the first time at the Sydney Opera House. The 25-minute piece defines the originality and depth of the artist's work through a sound immersion that plunges the listener into darkness. The installation is based on a state-of-the-art geodetic speaker created by Arup and completed with multidirectional speakers, programmed by Raj Patel and Terence Caulkins.

Requiem for 114 radios is a testimony to the death of analog technology, in which radios call on a complex universe of mysterious messages, modulated whistles, mutilated voices and incomprehensible words. The process, mixing with radio contributions, the real voices of musicians gives to listen to a new reading durequiem Dies Irae, present in particular in the films Shining and Mechanical Orange by Stanely Kubrick.

Among the musicians associated with the project are the performances of Matt Berninger (The National), Jehnny Beth (Savages), Casper Clausen (Efterklang), Jarvis Cocker, Jimi Goodwin (Doves), Rachel Goswell (Slowdive, Minor Victories), Blaine Harrison (Mystery Jets), Joe McAlinden (Linden, Superstar, BMX Bandits), Aimée Nash (The Black Ryder), Beth Orton, Conrad Standish (Devastations), Jonnine Standish (HTRK), Elena Tonra (Daughter) and Rachel Zeffira (Cat's Eyes).

Between July 6 and August 24, 2016, Requiem for 114 Radio is activated at Somerset House in London, as part of the collective exhibition Daydreaming with Stanley Kubrick on a proposal by James Lavelle.

In 2013, Jane Pollard and Iain Forsyth begot the filming of 20,000 days on Earth.

The feature film is punctuated by an unreleased soundtrack through the recording sessions of Push the Sky Away by the performers of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

The film was screened in preview at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2014, where the filmmakers received the Award for Directing as well as the award for best film edition for Jonathan Amos. They are the same year winners of the Douglas Hickox Award for a first production at the British Independent Film Awards.
