Writer Damian Fitzgerald has joined Three Drunk Monkeys following a two year stint at BWM where he worked on brands including BigPond, Virgin Money and Guinness. In addition to advertising, Fitzgerald has written and performed stand up comedy in the UK, Asia and Australia and sold comedy material to TV and Radio shows across Europe.
"I'm outrageously excited about joining 3DM. My first brief on Monday was to write a brand funded short film so I know I’m working in the right place," says Fitzgerald. Before moving from the UK two years ago, Fitzgerald was also a writer for Britain's best selling range of greetings cards.
Says Justin Drape, 3DM CD: "It’s great to have Damian come on board. He’s obviously a talented guy with big plans. We’ve already appointed him Executive Creative Director of our 2008 Christmas card."
Three Drunk Monkeys have grown from a team of three to a group of fifteen in the last year with clients including Foxtel, Unwired, Yahoo!7, SBS, Pepsi and NRL.
