ROGUE Welcomes Tim Bullock

ROGUE has announced that acclaimed, admired and highly sought after director Tim Bullock, has joined their roster.

With an unrivalled reputation in drama and comedy, Tim makes films that make people feel something. In his own words he’s “all about mining for a reaction - whether it be laughter or tears or inspiration”, and is a master of adopting a tone of voice and stylistic approach that suits the script and the message.

So why ROGUE for Tim?  “Throughout my time directing, Rogue has always been a name associated with rock-solid, quality work. I like that the company represents a breadth of directors with differing styles but all united by a high standard of work. Sam Brown is particularly inspiring to me. And what’s not to like about Kate Taylor? I’ve been a long time fan of hers and I can’t wait to work with her.”

Kate Taylor, ROGUE MD and partner commented, “Tim Bullock has a reel that oozes confidence and craft - that there are a few big chortles to be had, just makes it for me. I’ve been a huge fan of his for years - so, naturally, I’m delighted that he’s chosen to come to Rogue - and no, I don’t need to go to Specsavers. I know exactly what I’m looking at when I look at his work. Genius! That’s what.”

Famously a ‘suit’ in his previous life, Tim started out as a Corporate Recovery consultant for KPMG and then an account director at Saatchi & Saatchi before he began to fulfill his unleashed creativity directing short films.  These shorts just kept winning awards so Tim jumped ship from the corporate world and landed fully in the world of directing. 

Spotted by Adam & Eve’s founding partner, Ben Priest in 2010, Tim went on to direct the iconic ‘Brad & Dan’ campaign for Fosters that has run for 14 years making it one of the longest running beer campaigns in UK history.

Tim has received numerous awards at Cannes, The British Arrows and D&AD and is a four time winner of the Australian Director’s Guild Award for Best Direction in a Television Commercial.  His commercial works include spots for Toyota (Hilux Bog), AAMI (Athletes), Specsavers (Fishing), and NZ Lottery (Armoured Truck).
