About

A Canadian-Vietnamese born filmmaker, Adrian honed his production career in Toronto-Canada, working anywhere from music videos, national commercials, TV episodes to big budget Hollywood movies.

His first venture into the commercial world was to be in front of the camera for a US national spot for Time Warner, directed by Brent Thomas, best known for his art direction on Ridley Scott’s 1984 Apple Macintosh commercial.

Over the next 9 years, Adrian continues to work in front and behind the camera bringing compelling stories to the screen, from acting, directing to producing. As an actor, his Film and TV credits include Killjoys (Syfy), Beauty and the Beast (CW), 12 Monkeys (Syfy), Lost Girl (Showcase), The Expanse (Syfy), and the long running Air Emergency (National Geography) to name a few.

His production work by chance brought him back to Vietnam to be an Agency Producer for an Advertising Agency in Ho Chi Minh City. During his venture as a Creative Agency Producer, Adrian had great opportunities working with a team of talented Creatives with involvement at all stages in the development and execution of campaigns.

His work then brought him over to Kuala Lumpur-Malaysia to be an In-House Creative for a boutique Creative Production House. After a brief stint here, Adrian decides to put his focus back into directing and is now a full-time commercial director working out of Asia.

Brand experience includes: Samsung, Maxis Hotlink, Reebok, Nike, Lululemon, Hugo, WildAid, Lazada, Grab, Grabfood, BellTV, Time Warner, Sun Life, Laurier, Zalo, Fami Canxi, Tourism Canada, MuchMusic, Shell, Karofi, Merries, Canesten, Bluescope Zacs, Fami / Vinasoy, Uncommon Thread
