About Us

We Make Films
That Change
Things.

Two mates from completely different walks of life, with a combined 20 years in Film & TV — and an obsession with telling stories that actually matter.

Work With Us Our Why
Our Philosophy

The
Third Space

The "third space" refers to a metaphorical space where different ideas, cultures, or perspectives come together, allowing for new possibilities and creative thinking to take place.

We believe the most powerful stories live in the gap between the polished brand message and the raw human truth. Our job is to find that space, and build something meaningful inside it.

We work with purpose-driven organisations — the ones who want their video to do more than look good. We help them find the emotional truth at the heart of their story, and deliver it in a way that creates real, lasting change.

Vinnie Petrilli and Tyrone Jones — Third Space Studios
Vinnie Petrilli
Co-Director & Founder | Storytelling Lead

Vinnie has been a storyteller his whole life, from shooting films on his mum's VHS camcorder to working in broadcast television across Australia and abroad. He founded Third Space Studios to build something that champions his love of storytelling, diversity, and content that genuinely makes an impact. He fully immerses himself in every project, takes the time to truly get to know the people he's collaborating with, and believes that trust, transparency, and the ability to have a real laugh together are the foundations of any authentic end product. His approach is shaped by a deep sense of duty of care, particularly when working with family businesses and purpose-driven organisations whose legacies deserve to be honoured with real attention and respect. For Vinnie, authentic storytelling isn't a style choice. It's the only kind worth making.

Tyrone Jones
Co-Director | Strategy & Creative Lead

Ty joined Third Space Studios to do what great strategy is supposed to do: make sure the right story reaches the right people in the right way. With a Bachelor of Commerce degree, complemented by qualifications through Abbey Road Institute and Dubspot New York in audio engineering and sound design, he brings a commercial and creative clarity to the production process that most studios simply don't have. Ty leads the studio's strategic frameworks, including the Video Strategy Roadmap, which has become the foundation for how Third Space Studios approaches every new client relationship. He believes that a video without a strategy behind it is a missed opportunity, and he built the systems to make sure that never happens.

Our Purpose

Our Why

We started Third Space Studios because we believe film is one of the most powerful tools for social change that exists. But too often, it's used for the wrong things — or used right, but without the strategy to make it land.

"Our process starts long before we pick up a camera — and it's designed to meet your desired outcome."

We thrive at the crossroads of art and business, empowering brands, agencies and visionaries to tell their stories through the power of film — while shaping the future by creating work that champions thought leadership, culture and social impact.
