NEW YORK, USA – Tinygiant is dialing up the comedy with its latest signing of Brooklyn-based director and writer Doron Max Hagay, a name synonymous with genre defying humor and cultural sharpness. Known for his idiosyncratic eye and offbeat comedic tone, Hagay joins Tinygiant after his tenure at The Directors Bureau and a recent directorial debut on HBO’s Hacks Season 4 – the only guest director featured this season.
With credits spanning Saturday Night Live (two seasons as segment director), Netflix’s Joel Kim Booster: Psychosexual (Critics Choice nominated), and Showtime’s Matt Rogers: Have You Heard of Christmas? (an end of year darling on The New York Times and Vulture lists), Hagay has consistently delivered work that’s as culturally sharp as it is emotionally resonant. His acclaimed short films include Vape, Company, Women Are Mean and they have not only garnered ten Vimeo Staff Picks but cemented his reputation as a true auteur.
Currently in post-production is She Keeps Me Young, Hagay’s first feature film, co-written with Katy Fullan and Blair Beeken and co-produced by Tinygiant and International Pigeon Productions.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the Tinygiant roster, a company whose values and creative ambition I respect, not just for the work they put out, but for the way they champion directors at every stage of their careers. Their commitment to individuality and collaboration is rare, and I’m so excited to work together in the advertising space.” said Hagay on joining Tinygiant.
“Doron brings a singular filmmaking voice marked by sharp wit, inventive storytelling, and an unmistakably original perspective. Having worked with him on the narrative side, I can attest firsthand to his unique ability to elevate comedic material. We’re thrilled to now leverage his exceptional talent in the commercial space, where I’m certain he will continue to redefine comedic possibilities.” said Neil Champagne, Head of Development, Tinygiant.
As Tinygiant continues to grow in its 10th year, so does its creative ambition. With Doron joining the roster, the production powerhouse continues to grow with sharp, distinctive voices shaping the future of comedy.
