Guy Tyzack is a Victorian short film & music video director. With a hard

focus on character driven stories and an acute awareness of his

inspirations and limitations, Guy has quickly become the go to man for

music videos in Melbourne - with recent productions with the Murlocs,

Hideous Sun Demons, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

Guys fascination with character was developed early in his love for the

Mighty Boosh, since then he has always loved the humour in outliers and odd

things.

After studying in VCA and creating several short films, Melbourne band

Gonzo reached out for help in creating a music video - Guy quickly learnt

that these odd character driven studies with loose plot structures leant

perfectly to his interests. Since then Guy has been working with a

collection of top shelf Melbourne band with plans to continue.

Guy talks about learning to thrive in a stress induced environment and how

to find magic within those limitations, calling back to a Lars von Trier

film “The Five Obstructions” he viewed several years ago. It’s clear that

Guy is an incredibly thoughtful and reflective creator, aware of his

influences but able to critique bad habits he had previously adopted from

them (re:storyboards are for cowards).

It’s an exciting time for Guy as it feels like he is only starting to

really flesh out this space in Melbourne - we can’t wait to follow along

for the ride.
