“In speaking with JH it became apparent that he is a man of not only great talent, but of integrity and commitment. Creatives and producers alike speak highly of working with him and I can see why. I have admired JH’s work from afar for a long time and feel honoured that we will now represent him worldwide. Welcome JH.” [Wilf Sweetland, global chief executive officer, Sweetshop]

Sweetshop has signed director, Joshua H Walker, for representation in Australia. With Walker comes his contagious energy and passion for every project. He believes that creative trust and constructive collaboration are keys to every successful film. Walker’s portfolio includes commercials for the Australian Defence Force, NBN, Schweppes, Ampol, Mobil and VW. His campaign for the Australian Defence Force won at AWARD, Clio, and the New York Festivals and his work for Schweppes was highly awarded for VFX.

His films hold attention with their cinematic quality and distinctive visual approach. Their narratives compel. His elicits performances that draw audiences to them via photographic frames filled with richness and dramatic scale.

Edward Pontifex, managing director of Sweetshop Australia, stated, “JH has the rare ability to take intangible human qualities and bringing them to life. His work has an immense scale but is also very intimate. I’m enormously excited about what he’ll offer our creative partners and the work we’ll make together. We could not be happier that he’s chosen Sweetshop to represent him.”

Walker added, “To be a successful director takes the collaboration and trust of an entire organisation. Sweetshop is a collection of good and genuine people, which is so important because, after the chaos of creativity, it’s the people around you who matter most and help you to deliver the best work.”
