Adrian Powers is an Australian film director, editor and screenwriter. Several of his films have screened at film festivals across the globe, including the 69th Venice Film Festival, where his film 'Scruples' screened as part of a special collaboration between YouTube and Sir Ridley Scott, and during which Scott commented that Adrian and his fellow filmmakers were "all clearly talents for the industry to watch". In 2013, Adrian completed work as co-director and editor on the WWI feature 'Forbidden Ground', which was released worldwide (including distribution in the US through Lionsgate Entertainment). He has edited ten feature films, including 'Skin Deep' (officially selected for the 2014 Austin Film Festival), 'Embedded' (officially selected for the 2016 Sydney Film Festival), 'Zelos' (officially selected for the 2018 Gold Coast Film Festival) and 'Rip Tide' (released worldwide on Netflix in 2018). Additionally, as both an editor and director, Adrian has worked on hundreds of corporate videos, TVCs, music videos and documentaries, and frequently helps to produce content for some of the biggest brands in Australia. His next short film, 'Brolga', is due for release in 2019.
