First and foremost, Taylor tells stories.

Taylor Fauntleroy is a director whose work lives at the intersection of the raw and the dreamlike, blending grounded human stories with heightened visual language. Whether capturing real moments or crafting surreal worlds, his films are driven by a search for emotional truth. The story may be a moment, a night, a product, an imaginary cement factory, or a life. What matters is the feeling it leaves behind.

His directing career began in music videos, crafting visually ambitious work for artists including Tyla, Bob Marley, Glass Animals, and more. Commercially, he has directed work for brands including Nike, TikTok, SoFi, and Microsoft.

Born in Topanga and raised in Santa Barbara, Taylor developed an early love for exploration, perspective, and the strange beauty of the real world. That curiosity continues to shape his filmmaking, taking him across Jamaica, Brazil, England, and throughout the United States in search of honest moments and compelling stories.

He is currently developing his first feature film, The Dwelling.

Based in Los Angeles, Taylor continues to direct projects around the globe.
