Having a GAS with Greg

Today, I'm having a GAS with James Brook-Partridge, Ogilvy's head of moving image.

James spent the last decade in senior production roles at Ogilvy and Hogarth in Asia-Pacific. He was regional head of broadcast production in Hong Kong and then Singapore from 2009, and in 2015 became regional head of production at Hogarth & Ogilvy – a position that involved establishing the partnership between the two WPP shops as the integrated in-house production arm of Ogilvy.
