TJ O'Grady-Peyton first gained industry recognition in 2013 when he was shortlisted at the Young Director Awards in Cannes after graduating from the London Film School's filmmaking MA program. Since then, he has directed an array of commercial work all over the world for clients such as Under Armour, UEFA, Asics, Volkswagen, BMW and The European Union. TJ was awarded the Discovery Award in his home town of Dublin by the Dublin Film Festival. His short film "Wave" which TJ also starred in was picked up by The New Yorker after winning an Irish Film and Television Award for Best Short. Wave has played 75 festivals including BFI, Melbourne, Aspen and Clermont Ferrand after having its world premiere at Tribeca 2017. In 2020 he became a member of the Director's Guild of America. Last year his latest short film "Silence" had its world premiere at Tribeca 2021 and TJ was the recipient of the Bingham Ray New Talent Award at the Galway Film Fleadh. "Silence" was also nominated for an Irish Film and Television Award 2022.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
