I’m Christian Duffy, a Creative Director with a background in art direction, design and digital storytelling.
I’ve worked in New York, London and Sydney at places like Big Spaceship, Google, VaynerMedia, McGarryBowen, Stink, Special Group & McCann.
I make work of all different shapes and sizes, from digital to social to film and OOH. I then manage and bring it all together in award-winning campaigns from concept to production.
I’ve helped mobilise an entire generation to vote IRL with a speech for Barack Obama, and teamed up with Snoop Dogg to make a challenger food delivery brand top of mind during COVID with Australia's most successful TikTok campaign ever. I’ve also shaped the brand voice of the world’s largest sports nutrition brand, and helped to empower school girls to change the world.
My superpower is crafting work and getting shit done.
