ABOUT

Otso Tiainen is a versatile filmmaker with a passion for storytelling. His work spans film directing, screenwriting, and creative exploration. His latest film, Shadowland, made a splash at the Beyond Fest in Los Angeles in 2024.

Tiainen has a knack for creating engaging content. He co-created and directed the popular music travelogue series Sami Yaffa: Sound Tracker (2014-2017) for Yle and Gimmeyawallet Productions. The series, featuring the iconic Sami Yaffa of Hanoi Rocks, was a crossover hit in Finland and was acquired by Netflix for several territories. Tiainen’s work on the series earned him two Venla awards (Finnish Emmys) and a nomination for best TV director.

He also directed the documentary series Meeri Koutaniemi, irti kuvasta (2021), which delves into the world of visual arts and artists in Finland.

Tiainen’s skills extend to music videos. He is a self-taught director who quickly established himself in the field, winning his first prizes as early as 2002. He has directed numerous commercials for high-profile clients.
