Two-time ARIA nominated film director Murli Dhir signs with Chisel

Indie creative production agency Chisel has announced the signing of Murli Dhir for representation in Australia & New Zealand. He joins the founders and emerging director Emily Mays on their roster.

Nominated for two ARIA Awards in the Best Music Video category for work with MAY-A & Budjerah, Dhir has established himself this year as one to watch.

Says Dhir: “I’m stoked to have signed with Chisel. Zak, Pat, and Izzy have been in my corner for years, and I can’t wait to start making ideas together with their team.”

As a film director, cinematographer, editor, animator, and illustrator from Western Sydney, Dhir’s background is entrenched in hip-hop and skate culture, Dhir has found his niche using mixed media, surrealism & honed a visual style that has solidified his name in the Australian music scene.

Says Zak Kaczmarek, co-founder and director, Chisel: “Ever since working together over three years ago, we’ve loved watching Murli develop his style. It’s observational but sometimes surreal, with nostalgic themes and an engaging use of mixed media & animation. There’s so much energy in his edits, the use of colour, visual hooks & now moving into more narrative & performance-driven pieces, he’s a true talent, and we are happy he’s found a home with us at Chisel.”

Chisel is an independent, award-winning creative production company that has worked with brands like Budweiser, Gatorade, ASICS, Shopify, Football Australia & The Art Gallery of NSW.
