About Josh

Hi, I’m Josh Hasty. I’m a filmmaker who loves to work at the intersection of cinema and commerce.

My career began in 2014 as a writer, producer, director, and editor in the world of independent film. After freelancing as a one-man band for several years, Rob Zombie hired me to produce, direct, and edit a feature-length documentary on the making of his film, 31. Lionsgate acquired my documentary and released it theatrically and on Blu-ray alongside 31. Two years later, I got some friends together and we made a self-funded feature film called Candy Corn. Epic Pictures acquired the film for domestic theatrical release, and Sony Home Video acquired it for international.

In 2014, my wife and I founded a boutique creative production studio called Relavox. Under this banner, I have written, produced, and served as creative director on campaigns for Hilton, Nike, LEGO, Burlington, Orgain, and SYFY. With Relavox, I have also produced and directed docu-style content and educational series for clients ranging from bestselling authors and Harvard psychologists to Navy SEALs and business titans. My fluency writer, director, and producer allows me to hold vision and execution in equal measure.

In the summer of 2025, I decided to direct my first commercial campaign - the Fall campaign for Milani Cosmetics, which I also wrote and produced. The result is a dreamy and cinematic Mediterranean-inspired film that marries elegance and relatability. Stepping into the director’s chair on this campaign marks the beginning of a new chapter for me, and I look forward to continuing to marry my filmmaking sensibility with beauty and fashion brands.

Off-set, I am an advocate for mental health. I spent five years working closely with the David Lynch Foundation, where I hosted weekly meditations for creatives from around the world. One of the highlights of my life was when David Lynch praised my mental health contributions during a live conversation before we meditated together.

Writer + Director + Producer

After five years of serving solely as creative director, producer, and writer, I have returned to the director’s chair. My commercial directorial debut is for Milani Cosmetics’ Fall campaign, “Your Best Light”.
