the team

Justin O'Brien

Managing Director

Justin’s career began in MarComs and took him into the world of film and television in Europe. He ran a successful production company working for U.K., U.S. and Irish clients before relocating back to Australia in 2010.

He has a strong interest in defence-related marketing and  broadcast TV production.

Danielle Tinker

General Manager/Producer

Danielle is an award winning filmmaker and video content creator. As General Manager of redbikini, her understanding of all departments means she is across the various workflows and is the go-to person for staff and crew. Now a mother, you may see Danielle multi-tasking even further with her daughter in one arm and a laptop in another.

Damian Smerdon

Senior Editor

With too many years’ experience in the edit suite, Damian has mastered the art of telling stories in a powerful and emotive way.

Annie Keeves

Writer/Producer

With a background in journalism, Annie loves telling a good story. Her attention to detail and research skills are second to none, and spotting grammatical errors is her guilty pleasure. With a passion for fashion, she is always impeccably dressed, with several pairs of the same shoes in different colours.

Oliver Davis

Camera/Editor

Oliver doesn’t drink coffee, but does consume unhealthy amounts of footage.
Originally from the UK he now lives in beautiful Adelaide, doing what he loves best and spending time with a great group of creatives.
He relinks media in his sleep and when he is not behind a computer editing you’ll be sure to find him behind a camera shooting.

Mark Cowley

Cinematographer

Mark sees the world through the lens of his camera. He’s been on board with redbikini as a Cinematographer for a long time, and can show any subject in the best light. His biggest crime was wearing an English rugby jersey while having his Australian passport photo taken.

Shane McNeil

Director

Former ad man, Shane is the guy with the vision. His role as Director suits him well because he gets to boss everyone around (in a nice way). Possessing aspiration in abundance, watch out for this name on the credit roll of the next blockbuster.

Sonia Sheppard

Human Resources

With formidable HR skills, Sonia is a one-woman army. She oversees redbikini’s human resources and ongoing strategic development. She is an excellent judge of character, though it leaves us wondering why we ended up with the team
that we did.

Aaron White

Animator

Originally from Adelaide, Aaron has lived and worked all over the world. As our Lead Animator, he manages all manner of 2D, 3D and visual effects work. If he’s not doing that, he’s probably complaining about the weather in Canada.

Bea Roy

Writer/Production Assistant

Bea is new to the team and creativity is her passion. Despite being an Aussie-born Gen Z, she has been accused of being British and twenty-four for many years. Even if she’s writing, reading, drawing, or making videos for YouTube, she’s probably got her phone nearby. If ever stuck for ideas, Bea asks herself, “what would Iron Man do?”

Cormac Bryne

Business Manager

With a background in corporate accounting, Cormac has held numerous CFO and Company Secretary roles for a range of corporate and publicly listed clients. Most recently he worked for the Commonweath Bank in their Corporate and Business Banking Division as a portfolio manager.  Cormac’s secret power is knowing all the who’s who in Adelaide.
