Oisin O’Driscoll has joined The Mill Chicago’s expanding color team, coming over from The Mill London where he crafted a highly impressive body of work since joining in 2014. O’Driscoll has become known for his bold, cutting edge style and he has formed lasting relationships with some of the industry’s leading talents.
O’Driscoll’s noteworthy work includes Radiohead’s “I Promise” directed by Michael Marczak, Nike Korea’s “Run It” directed by We Are From LA and, most recently, Adidas’ epic “The Answer” campaign for the 2018 FIFA World Cup directed by Manu Cossu out of Iconoclast.
Another key creative highlight for O’Driscoll was grading the BAFTA award-winning “Home,” a powerful 20-minute short film addressing the refugee crisis, working with Somesuch and BBH London.
O’Driscoll joins a team in Chicago which includes colorist Mikey Pehanich, a native Chicagoan who’s been with The Mill for more than five years. Pehanich’s portfolio has grown in recent years with work for Allstate, Samsung, Marriott and Buick on his reel.
Carl Phillips, managing director of The Mill’s Chicago studio, said, “I worked with Oisin in London and he is a truly exceptional talent. The addition of such a stellar creative artist allows us to further strengthen our world-class offering for color.”
