Hi! I’m Brent.
I’m a director with a background in photojournalism, creating commercial, documentary and branded films in Canada and internationally.
Over the past decade, I’ve partnered with brands, agencies and institutions across automotive, technology, sport, financial services, health care and nonprofit sectors, including Nike, Kia, the NBA, McDonald’s, Canada Life, CAMH, SickKids Foundation and University Health Network.
My documentary background shapes the way I approach every project, building trust, finding authentic moments and creating an environment where people feel comfortable in front of the camera.
I’m drawn to stories that are honest and emotionally grounded, whether working with real people, actors or unexpected environments. I look for moments that feel discovered rather than manufactured, balancing authenticity with a cinematic approach.
Whether telling a brand story or a deeply personal one, I’m interested in finding moments that feel truly human.
