Finn Mactaggart is an independent filmmaker whose work has been shown at Spazio Maiochhi, Milan and MoMA PS1, New York. He is currently working on his debut narrative short.
Finn began his career as Music Editor for cult internet art magazine DIS, breaking the debut single from Princess Nokia as well as programming a pop-up radio station at Red Bull Studios New York, with guests including Ariel Pink.
Finn left DIS to become Creative Director of PC Music, a record label of which he was a founding member. The label enjoyed a meteoric rise, eventually signing a joint venture deal with Columbia Records. Finn directed their label showcases in London, Beijing and New York, the latter dubbed a "high-concept extravaganza"by the failing New York Times.
Leaving PC Music, Finn began working within the fashion industry, soundtracking shows on the London and New York Fashion Week schedules, and gaining a reputation as a trusted cultural critic, hosting panels for Tate Britain and SHOWstudio. Finn's first foray into video was directing the fashion film Family for CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner, Telfar, followed by the short documentary on Telfar's origins Lefrak. Shortly after, Finn captured The Great American Mud Wrestle, an off-the-wall mud-wrestling event featuring celebrity contestants like Lily-Rose Depp. His fashion films for brands such as Wales Bonner and Kiko Kostadinov have been featured on Dazed and i-D.
