The people behind the teeth..

Lakshman Anandanayagam has been working in the visual arts in various capacities since 2004.

Initially trained in motion design and VFX, his areas of commercial work and artistic practise now span multiple digital and physical toolsets. He's been a Flame artist for top Auckland post houses and collaborated on international projects in Europe and Asia, honing his commercial craft. Many weekends and holidays have been spent creating light art and projection mapped content for festivals and arts projects. He's happiest when creatively problem solving and exploring storytelling through sensory experience.

Kim Baldwinson is a creative producer with over 25 years’ experience spanning film production, advertising, post-production, and immersive events.

After completing her film degree at Unitec and cutting her teeth on long-form film projects, Kim moved into agency producing, taking on full-time roles at Ogilvy and leading agency DDB. During this time, she produced award-winning work for clients including Sky, McDonald’s, and Instant Kiwi.

In 2013, Kim co-founded Creature Post. The studio has since become widely recognised for its creative edge and polished execution across both advertising and experiential projects.

With a deep network across the commercial and creative arts, she is a natural connector who brings people, ideas, and high end execution together.

Max Desai is a motion graphic designer with over a decade of experience in transforming ideas into bold, dynamic visuals. His work spans everything from sculptural 3D animation to rich, layered compositions - always with a focus on movement, mood, and energy.

Outside the studio, Max is a DJ, and that love for sound naturally weaves into his design practice. He's especially drawn to the intersection between art, design, and sound, crafting audiovisual experiences that don’t just catch the eye, but resonate on a deeper, sensory level.

Whether he's animating a brand story or mixing a late-night set, Max brings the same energy: considered, dynamic, and always in motion.
