Brendan Joel Hildebrandt

I’m a filmmaker based in Perth, Western Australia.

Cinematic storytelling has been a passion of mine for the past 15 years. I studied at the WA Screen Academy, and my background is in directing and cinematography. I love working with natural light, strong composition and the small visual details that give a film its character.

Curiosity shapes the way I work. I enjoy exploring different perspectives, getting to know the people and places behind a story, and finding the right way to bring it to the screen.

Through Stir Films, I create commissioned films for people, places and brands , alongside developing original productions.
