ABOUT

Ryan A. Conaill is a filmmaker who began his career in his teenage years, captivated by the emerging opportunities of early internet filmmaking. At 18, his short film became the youngest local entry accepted into the Cork Film Festival, leading him to pursue a degree in Film at SAE Australia, where he earned a scholarship and developed his creative practice across multiple media.

Initially inspired by horror, cult, and classic films, Ryan's focus broadened to include world cinema and the works of influential international directors, deepening his appreciation for film as an artistic medium. His creative practice is further shaped by a deep interest in music and music production, as well as a passion for traditional art and video games.

Ryan has contributed to a diverse range of projects, from viral digital content in Australia to local narratives for Irish television. He enjoys working across feature films, short films, and music videos, continually exploring new forms of visual expression. He frequently collaborates with his twin brother, Reece, blending their complementary skills to enhance their creative projects.

While Ryan often works independently, he actively seeks opportunities to collaborate with artists and organizations committed to pushing the boundaries of film and media, aiming to create work that is visually striking and creatively ambitious.
