Quirky humour. It’s the stuff great ads are made of.
It’s also Gary John’s calling card.
In the last nine years, Gary John has directed ads for Air New Zealand, Coca-Cola, Burger King, Sanitarium, Tiger Beer, Canon and Mother.
What attracted him to Photoplay?
“Aside from having built up a really strong roster of directors with a solid creative reputation, the Photoplay team has never once mentioned hobbits or sheep in any discussions we’ve had… this was an instant attractor,” he stated.
“I think it’s important to have like-minded people around you and Photoplay’s work speaks for itself. They obviously has the right support in place for comedy directors and have a great understanding of the complexity of the process.”
Photoplay Films executive producer, Oliver Lawrance added, “We’re thrilled to have Gary join the Photoplay line-up, I’ve actually been a fan of his work for some time. I look forward to his Kiwi banter and unrivalled enthusiasm for laughs.”
