Clayton Orgles is an Australian director with a focus on psychological horror films.

Clayton began his career in 2013 by directing music videos, quickly gaining a reputation for his visual storytelling, emotional resonance, and attention to production detail. This led to collaborations with a spectrum of international artists and record labels, providing him with the experience to navigate diverse narrative demands and challenging budget constraints.

Many of his projects, including the popular videos for Black Tongue's "Second Death" and Saviour's "Younger" have attracted hundreds of thousands to millions of views online, underscoring the global impact of his work.

In 2018, Clayton made his film debut with the short psychological drama "Disenthrall," about a game developer whose grief pushes her into a downward spiral where virtual reality blurs with the real world.

This was followed by "Dissociation" in 2023, an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Picture in the House," which played at major festivals including Screamfest LA, and won "Best WA Horror Short Film" at the Perth Horror Film Festival.

That same year, Clayton ventured into animation with "Dislocate", earning a spot as a Best Animation Finalist at CinefestOz.

His recent work includes the dark comedy "Disconnect," which won an Audience Choice for Best Short Film at the WA Made Film Festival in 2024. The film explores a young couple's encounter with a relic that grants social media followers in exchange for self-inflicted pain.

As Clayton continues to refine his craft, he remains committed to expanding his directorial scope and bringing innovative, psychological horror to audiences worldwide.
