When he’s not modeling for his own website photography, Grant sometimes directs movies, like I AM MOTHER, which stars two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank alongside newcomer Clara Rugaard and the voice of Rose Byrne.
The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival where it was met with rave reviews (91% on Rotten Tomatoes) and was subsequently acquired by Netflix for worldwide distribution.
As a commercial director, Grant’s work has been recognized at every major advertising award show around the world, including the Cannes Lions, D&AD, Clios, Spikes, NY Festivals, London International and AWARD.
Like every other living soul on the planet, Grant co-hosts a podcast. His show - The Commentary Cast - attempts to right-the-wrong that movies in the streaming era often go without director’s commentaries. Each episode invites a film maker to record a feature-length, hybrid interview/commentary while watching their own work. Season one of the show features the film makers behind streaming blockbusters like EXTRACTION, MORTAL KOMBAT, PALM SPRINGS and GREYHOUND.
Born and raised in Perth, Western Australia, Grant studied film making at Curtin University before founding his own production company, The Penguin Empire immediately after his graduation. He is represented by CAA for work in film and TV. For commercial work he is represented by Scoundrel in Australia.
