Theo Delaney has made ads all over the world. He’s earned a reputation for versatility but is probably best known for his performance and humour led work.
While working in his first job as a runner he moonlighted as a writer for a number of film and advertising titles before becoming News Editor of Direction magazine at the age of 22. He interviewed numerous filmmakers watching many of them work at close hand before being given his chance to direct at Tony Kaye Films.
He won a silver Lion at Cannes for his first commercial and followed it up with the Best New Director award.
After spells at Spots and Tomboy Films he set up Hotspur and Argyle in 2002 with producer Danny Fleet.
In addition to his prolific, award-winning commercials work he made the acclaimed short The Call and works across a range of new media through Hotspur and Argyle’s sister company Contentment Worldwide.
The Coca Cola campaign he shot for Mother scooped seven diplomas at the 2008 British Television Advertising Awards as well as the year’s Best Viral Award. In the United States he is represented by Sandi Mollod. If you look carefully you can see Theo in the picture above.
