I'm Lachlan. I often work in partnership with my wife Sarah as digital freelancers based in Victoria, Australia, trading as Sarah & Lachlan Media Pty Ltd. We deliver animation, apps, design, interactivity and games across advertising, events, education, music and the broader design industry.
Alongside our collaborations, I’ve worked within several advertising agencies and the video game industry, specialising in animation, user interface design and graphic design. Sarah focuses on animation and digital design for advertising and design clients, and has taught design and motion graphics at tertiary level.
Our core focus is animation and motion graphics, including extensive HTML5 animation for advertising, explainer content and music videos. We also produce short-form social content (Instagram, Facebook, animated GIFs), often with a touch of humour where we can.

Senior performance marketing strategist, 7 years across agency and in house roles, including guiding junior team members, running Google and Meta Ads across a wide range of industries. I don't just run ads, I look at the whole picture, tracking, site, offer, to find what's really holding results back.
Recent work: grew a B2B client's leads from 76 to 371 a month while cutting cost per lead from $15.62 to $8.04, and took their EOFY campaign to 13.4x, up from 3.2x the year before. I work solo, respond fast, and care about results that actually mean something, not vanity metrics.
