ABOUT

Dirk Hanekom was born and raised in Bloemfontein, but decided early on to move to a place that sucks less.

 

After a few years in the retail and publishing industry as well as a short stint in musical theater, he embarked on a career in creative production and hasn't looked back since.

 

He started as a videographer and editor for Watkykjy.co.za, the biggest Afrikaans blog in South Africa, where he was awarded 2 Loeries and a Pendoring award for his work on the "Wie's Bang" campaign done for Van Coke Kartel.

 

Since then he has done a large amount of freelance work specializing in cinematography, off- and online editing, sound design, directing, motion graphics and writing. He has also worked in industry positions ranging from post production coordinator on a local reality show, to mid and senior audio visual positions at various agencies. Previous clients include Adidas, Bacardi, First National Bank, Hilltop Live, Bridgestone, KykNet, and Premier Foods among others.

 

Dirk has a passion for online content creation and is pedantic about his work in a way that makes clients really happy.

 

He currently embraces a cosmopolitan life where he has a beautiful view of the city and an even more beautiful wife.
