Conor Kehelly is an Irish animator, illustrator, and music producer known for films that blend playful textures with darker, introspective themes. He writes, directs, animates, scores, and voices his entirely self-funded work, including the award-winning The Final Nail In The Coffin (2023) and his latest film A Pint Of Bitter (2026).

Originally trained in 2D animation, Conor’s recent practice expands into 3D while retaining the sensibilities of traditional graphic storytelling, using bold shapes, nostalgic textures, and rich soundscapes to explore the tension between the wholesome and the melancholic.
