Vivid, arresting images with impeccable design
Core team partners
Swordfish is an agency without borders, unconstrained by any limitations of who we might like or be able to attract as employees.
Instead we stay deliberately small and add resources to particular projects.
It's a hub and spokes model, and the spread is far and wide....read below about our partners who we have hand picked over the years for their talents rather than their geographic location. When you work with Swordfish, you tap into the cream of the world's practitioners in all sort of fields.
-
Leonardo Barbarosa, creative genius.
Award winning art director, image magician and retoucher, Leonardo came to us during a visit to Sydney and we immediately started throwing projects his way. Building on his experience gained at JWT, Droga 5 and Burnett's, he nails it everytime.
Now he's returned to his native Brazil, we miss his physical presence but enjoy the overnight turnaround while we sleep.
-
Paul Southgate, strategy planning genius.
Happily, leaving Ideaworks where he was Head of Strategy, has freed Paul up to work with us.
Which is great because with a career spanning 25 years, 5 continents and 100’s of clients, Paul's pretty handy.
“Paul was instrumental in the development of the “new” BIG W. He worked alongside me in redefining what our business stood
for, and how we would both execute this strategy internally and externally. I have no doubt that without Paul’s support, guidance and clear thinking, we would not have been so successful”
(Greg Foran, Director of Woolworths Supermarkets, liquor and fuel; former
General Manager of BIG W) -
Patrick Visser, motion graphics genius.
Grown up wizzkid...with 11 years in digital media design at Nine Pixels, DDB Tribal and One Digital showed Patrick just how good he is...which is why he left them all to persue more satisfying relationships like the one he enjoys with Swordfish.
Works as fast as he rides his motorbike.

Swordfish builds content management system-based websites mostly in Blocks Global, the cms developed by our webdev partners Square Circle Triangle.
The most highly customisable Content Management System on the web, Swordfish has adapted Blocks to any business which uses a dealer or franchise structure where localised marketing and content management is required.
-
Damien Pierce, genius with a lense.
Videographer, mash-up maniac, photographer and out there creative brain, Damo has long been a collaborator.
Damo specialises in stealth shoots where conditions might not allow a more, erm, formal approach.
The result is always spontaneious, energetic and real. LIke the man behind th camera.
