Norman Bates is the professional name of Belgian directing duo Inti Calfat and Dirk Verheye, Brussels-based filmmakers working internationally across commercials, television, and music videos. Their commercial portfolio includes global campaigns for Coca-Cola, HTC, Huawei, Mercedes, Mazda, Renault, Samsonite, and Uniqlo, demonstrating range from intimate character work to large-scale international productions. In 2014, their "Don't google it" campaign for Belgian medical site Gezondheid en Wetenschap won 4 silver awards at Eurobest through DDB Brussels and Lovo Films, while their provocative Young Director Award campaign "Birth" for BETC Paris earned 4 gold awards at the French Art Directors Club. Beyond advertising, the duo directed the Belgian television series 'Over Water' and Netflix's 'Into the Night' (2019), the first Belgian Netflix Original, which reached #1 in Belgium, Germany, Poland, and Thailand and placed in the top 10 in over 60 countries. Known for their organic aesthetic, attention to detail, and what they describe as a "borderline-neurotic commitment to tell stories," Norman Bates brings proven narrative capabilities and international production experience to commercial work. They are currently developing their first feature film 'Rumors' and are working with Rebolución for US/LATAM and Sparks for Canada.
