Ais Brady is a Dublin-based writer and director. Her work centres on emotionally layered storytelling with a strong visual sensibility. She studied Visual Communication and came into filmmaking through design, initially working on pitch deck treatments and assisting directors.

She previously worked in-house at Berlin-based production company BWGTBLD as a director’s assistant; treatment designer and visual researcher. Now working independently through aisais.studio, she continues to collaborate with directors at early stages of development while developing her own slate.

Ais has directed three acclaimed short films and various music videos. She’s currently in post-production on her short ‘Like Me’, supported by Screen Ireland’s Focus Shorts scheme.

Her most recent short ‘The Silence Between won three Gold Kinsale Shark Awards in 2024 (Best Short Film under 15 mins, Best Casting, and Best Acting Performance). It was also nominated for Best Short at the Emerging Director Awards and is currently streaming on the RTÉ Player as part of the selected Shortscreen programme.

Her debut feature, New Beginnings, was a screenwriting finalist at the 2024 Kerry International Film Festival and was later selected for development through Screen Ireland’s 2025 Perspectives scheme.
