03About the Artist

The architecture
of story.

Brad Diebert is a multi-disciplinary filmmaker based in Brisbane. His work explores the intersection of spatial design and emotional weight — often utilizing practical effects and physical set construction to ground fantastical narratives.

Combined with credits as a writer, producer, director, DOP and editor on his own independent films, that range gives him an intuitive grasp of film language. Known on set as a quick thinker and problem solver — calm under pressure, delivering on time and on budget while leading a dedicated, happy crew.
