Filip Nilsson is a Swedish commercial director who spent roughly 24 years at Forsman & Bodenfors, earning a 2010 Ad Age Creativity 50 profile for IKEA and SVT digital work, before shifting fully to directing. He co-founded Folke Film and signed with Skunk (US) and Blink (UK) in 2015; he now works via Object & Animal (UK/US), Pine (Sweden), OPC (Canada), Henry (France), and Primo (LATAM). Nilsson directed the “Technician” and “Hook” films in the Volvo Trucks Live Tests series (Forsman & Bodenfors/Folke), part of the campaign that took the Cannes Lions 2014 Cyber Grand Prix and a One Show Gold Pencil; Object & Animal credits him with 144 awards. His reel centers on idea-led comedy, including Sony Headphones’ “Ear Crunches,” IKEA’s 2016 “Let’s Relax” (as Tompa & Rondo with Tomas Skoging)—a Budapest-shot 18th-century social-media send-up—and later IKEA spots “Do Try This At Home” and “Box it.” Recent work includes Craft Sportswear’s 2025 caveman epic-run film (Palma, Pine), Philips coffee (2024), LG InstaView (2023), and Sainsbury’s Eat Better (2021). Other clients include Posten, Statoil, Gevalia, Marabou, SPP, Ottawa Citizen, Swedish Radio, and Blaklader.
