Production company Tinygiant has announced the addition of the directing duo Taylor Reid to its acclaimed roster of talent.
Comprised of directors Nicholas Taylor and Paul Reid, Taylor Reid brings an unconventional approach to commercial filmmaking. Their films have earned a reputation for telling stories of extraordinary individuals achieving exceptional feats, seamlessly weaving together both the intimate and the universal with captivating visual energy.
Founded in 2017 in Toronto, Taylor Reid quickly became known as one of Canada's best and brightest rising director talents. With Taylor's rich background in documentary film and Reid's experience steeped in action sports — including projects that have captured world-class surfing, snowboarding, and skateboarding — they have created an impressive portfolio of memorable visual stories with a variety of high-profile brands.
Earlier this year, Taylor Reid directed See the Trafficking Signs, the national awareness campaign of The Joy Smith Foundation. The poignant and harrowing film educates on the common signs that someone may be at risk of sex trafficking. Past clients include Air Canada, EA Sports, Ford, Mastermind, Porsche, RBC Bank, Red Bull, Subaru, TD Bank, Yamaha, and Volkswagen, among others.
"Tinygiant is an amazing and supportive team; I think they have built a company that represents what the future of production will look like. We are really excited to be a part of it," says Taylor. "Their dedication to creating award-winning work that matters makes them a natural fit for us. Sara and Veronica bring optimism and excitement to production, which is something that's very important to us. We feel very grateful to be on the roster and to be working with such a talented team." Reid adds, "We're excited to be signing with Tinygiant as we feel it's a great fit on their roster with our automotive and action sports background. Veronica and Sara are industry legends, and we can't wait to work further with them. We're especially honoured to be signed by this women-owned and operated production company."
"Neil Champagne, the Head of our scripted division, met them in Canada and immediately shared their work with us. Now that they are in Los Angeles, we can't wait to bring their talent to the States," says Veronica Diaferia, Founder and Executive Producer at Tinygiant. "Nick and Paul are creatively fresh, dedicated, humble, and a ton of fun to be around. We can't wait to see Taylor Reid write their chapter of the Tinygiant story."
With the addition of Taylor Reid, Tinygiant continues to build on its reputation as a trusted partner for global brands and a launchpad for multifaceted emerging talent. Recent projects include commercial campaigns for Target, Sprite, and P&G.
