Athenkosi Ndzombane
Art Director, Photographer
Not boring enough to say I’ve never tried to write a short film, or unique enough to say I’ve never thought of DJing but what I will always do is try to bring new things to the table.
I throw everything at the wall when I work — sometimes good ideas, other times really bad ones buts always in the shape of a kitchen sink. Not always elegant, often hard to explain, but always easy to identify. To see some of the process behind my favourite projects, it’s all hiding in the Top Secret panel.
I studied at Red & Yellow Creative School of Business through the Loeries Creative Futures Scholarship and Mo Thulo Bursary. I somehow ended up ranked #12 and #13 in the Loeries Student Rankings two years in a row, as well as 2x Silver Student Lories wins which proves sometimes I know what I’m doing.
Along side my brother we started Developing Agency, a content studio that exists to make creative work with people like me, photographers, filmmakers, friends, and anyone else who wants to build work that doesn’t feel like homework. We’ve worked on a ADC winning project, lost too many pitches and will live to work another day.
I’m currently freelancing, and open to projects, roles and any work that isn’t degrading, soulless or requires showing too much skin...
