Megan O’Rourke is a multi-disciplinary filmmaker from Dublin. Since completing her degree in Film and English at Trinity College Dublin, she has worked across the screen sector in live sports, talk shows, game shows, scripted TV and more. Her most recent work includes Elephant in the Room, a mental health talk show hosted by Brent Pope, which she directed and vision mixed, and her newest short, Species of Spaces, which is currently in post-production. In her filmmaking she is particularly drawn to the surreal and bizarre and draws stylistic inspiration from analogue horror and the Greek Weird Wave.
