According to Hunter-based international animation production team Stig Bergqvist & Lisa Marriott, the Hunter is an area in transition and growth with lots of interesting people. Their business is a global one and they are able to maintain their international client and artist network while enjoying the beautiful region.
Recently settling in Newcastle, NSW from Stockholm, Sweden, Stig Bergqvist and Lisa Marriott have based their animation production company, Fluffy Cloud Media, in the Hunter and continue to service their international client base which includes Nestle, ESPN and SAS.
“We decided to settle in Newcastle because of its University and the close proximity to the Sydney market. We love it here, not only for the beaches and the lifestyle but also because it is an area in transition and growth with lots of interesting people.”
“Our business is a global one. We are able to maintain our international client and artist network while enjoying this beautiful region.”
