Picture North Signs Director Kevin Oh
Picture North welcomes Kevin Oh to its roster of filmmaking talent. An observational director known for his detailed composition and narrative timing, Kevin’s films are grounded in real moments and subtle performances that drive every film forward.
Originally a physics instructor, the pull towards storytelling brought Kevin to the world of advertising, and with it, the opportunity to direct. Often immersing himself in every part of a campaign, Kevin designs everything to serve the goal of creating something that feels honest, lived-in, and quietly impactful. He is invested in refining every detail, then opening himself to watching what happens on set and directing the film as it evolves in the moment. Kevin draws inspiration from human relationships and the in-between moments of interaction, chasing scenes that feel special.
Kevin has directed commercials for top brands, including Adidas, Coca-Cola, Disney, FIFA, Google, Nike, Jack Daniels, and a Puma campaign starring Rosé from Blackpink. A well-rounded filmmaker, Kevin is also an accomplished DP and photographer, allowing him to step into many roles on a project and meaningfully collaborate with nearly every department.
“To be honest, joining Picture North felt like a natural alignment more than a decision,” says Kevin Oh on signing. “I tend to put a lot of weight into the details and the relationships behind the work. And since this is something I plan on doing for the rest of my life, that foundation was extremely important to me. There’s a level of care, accountability, and precision at Picture North that I really value. It feels like the kind of partnership where we can build something meaningful and hold each other to a higher standard with every step forward we take together. I’m excited where this path leads both of us.”
Executive Producer and Founder of Picture North, Martin Rodahl, adds, “Kevin is a multiple threat signing! He's obviously a very accomplished motion director, but his still photography portfolio makes him even more competitive. His background in advertising agencies has developed a heightened level of empathy and collaboration with creative teams. His vision and commitment to execution through post-production become the cherry on top. Overall, he's a perfect fit for the Picture North model. We've already got several projects together in the bag, and we're pushing hard for many, many more!"
