CB hears that Whybin\TBWA Auckland’s new chief creative officer Toby Talbot has snared hot creative team Lisa Fedyszyn and Jonathan McMahon out of his former agency DDB New Zealand, offering them joint CD roles.
In April 2010,Talbot, then ECD at DDB, hired the pair from Colenso BBDO, Auckland, where that had been a star team for three and a half years. The team, ranked #1 in the world on Bestads over the last decade, has been recognised extensively in NewZealand and overseas at D&AD, Cannes, Clio, LondonInternational Awards, The One Show and Young Guns.
At time of writing, Talbot could not be contacted.

Welcome aboard team. First job, the 2 Degrees pitch.
Only two questions about this:
1. Do we even care?
2. Do they know the meaning of the word ‘snares’?
Noun
A trap for catching birds or animals, typically one having a noose of wire or cord.
Verb
Catch (a bird or mammal) in a snare
wouldn’t mind catching her in a snare…..
The cat domination of New Zealand continues – now they are making them Creative Directors. Where will it end ?
Good team. They’re not CDs though.
What about the other CDs there?
great team, they’ll go well anywhere. And they are CD material, so calm down, and don’t be so mean.
Anyone can become a CD.
The real question is for how long?
Congratulations poo poo bums!
Why are the comments related to Talbot being moderated off this site? I guess the Lynch/Talbot relationship remains a cosy one.
Great news for Whybin/TBWA! They’re a fabulous team who will do well. Congrats
The Death Star, it moves location it does.
Woof.
I’m amazed someone let your comment through.
