David Lawless
David’s modern aesthetic melds with a heritage of storytelling; a superposition of style that bursts with evocative imagery & human-sized storytelling.
Born in Paris and raised in Dublin, David grew up on a diet of European art-house and '70's American cinema. He cultivated his love of film at the National Film School of Ireland in Dún Laoghaire before moving to London where he spent several years editing & directing broadcast & commercials while developing his style through photography, shorts, and video installations.
David left the grit of London and Dublin made his way to California where he established himself as a director with a unique eye and sensitivity for the art of telling human stories, exploring cultures, and a knack for the unexpected.
His style blends the immediacy and honesty of non-narrative with visual storytelling craft characterized by kinetic movement, exacting cinematography, and an editor's instinct for pacing. He excels at bringing emotion and gravitas to a technical process. His work - whether abstract or forthright, automotive or character-driven - is always relatable and imbued with depth, beauty, curiosity, and excitement.
David now divides his time between Portland, Seville, and London, directing commercials, brand films, and short narrative, and is in the process of writing and developing his first feature film.
