Francesca Jaynes (born 12 October 1958) is an English choreographer and movement director who works in many disciplines within the entertainment industry, including feature films,[1][2] theatre and commercials.

Early career

Jaynes trained at the Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts, and danced professionally for several years before suffering a serious injury that led to a transition into choreography. Following several years choreographing musical stage acts, she began working in UK television in 1982[3] and a career in film began in 1999 with Mike Leigh's Topsy-Turvy,[4][5] earning her a nomination in the American Choreography Awards.[6]

Film and television

Jaynes' work in feature film covers a period of three decades and multiple genres, including costume drama (The Duchess, Great Expectations), family (Dumbo,[7] Muppets Most Wanted,[8] Charlie and the Chocolate Factory[9]), science fiction (Gravity,[9][10] A.I. Artificial Intelligence[11][12][13]), fantasy (Avengers: Age of Ultron, Clash of the Titans), and music-based drama (De-Lovely,[14] Topsy-Turvy).

Her television credits include work with Judi Dench and Dustin Hoffman in Roald Dahl's Esio Trot for the BBC, as well as programmes such as Quiz by James Graham, Foyle's War, Agatha Christie's Marple, The Virgin Queen, and Tipping the Velvet.
