TJ O'Grady Peyton
TJ brings a filmmaker's eye to every project, creating visually cinematic work that never loses sight of the human story at its heart. His distinctive style—striking imagery paired with emotional authenticity—has made him equally sought after for intimate character pieces and large-scale productions.
With experience filming across the globe, TJ has directed high-profile celebrity talent and elite sports figures with equal confidence. He understands how to capture both the rawness and beauty of lived experience, often weaving in unexpected humour or heightened world-building that makes his work unmistakably bold yet deeply authentic.
His recent achievements speak volumes: two Gold Sharks at the Kinsale Shark Awards, Gold at the 1.4 Awards, and an Oscar shortlisting for his short film (with Colin Farrell as Executive Producer). TJ doesn't just direct commercials—he creates miniature films that resonate long after viewing.
