Throughout his career, he has directed commercials for major brands, including 7-Eleven, Acura, Altoids, Ameriquest, Audi, Bud Light, Call of Duty, CareerBuilder, Cars.com, CDW/Cisco, Citi, Consumers Energy, DirecTV, Dunkin' Donuts, and more. His directorial skills in the advertising realm earned him a Golden Lion Award at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival.

Transitioning into the realm of moving pictures, Gillespie's work has spanned a range of genres, from the critically acclaimed film Lars and the Real Girl in 2007 to the horror-comedy movie Fright Night in 2011. He also ventured into television, directing several episodes of the series "The United States of Tara."
