Michael Mouritz

Michael is not just another Director with a DOP to Director career pipeline. He also happens to have made a feature length martial arts epic in High School that is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the worst films ever made. Luckily for all of us, he has improved a bit since then.

Coming up in the camera department of local TV Series’ (his dreams are still haunted by the phrase “Waiting on video split”), Michael has subsequently directed commercials, brand films and documentaries in the remotest parts of Australia’s Western Deserts all the way to Qatar, Macau and Brunswick West.

He prides himself on running calm, collaborative sets that are as fruitful as they are enjoyable. He remembers starting in the industry many years ago when a 1st AC quipped “I bet you are writing a feature screenplay like everyone else.” He was. He still is.
