I love making, creating & doing.

Just don’t ask me to do anything in excel.

 

Who is Neat Trick?

Hi, I’m Kelly. Mother, sister, partner, creator, collaborator, writer, baker, big fan of music, movies, design, specific fonts and travel.

I’ve been in the creative industry since quarter-inch tapes were still a thing (google it). Over the years, I’ve perfected my craft in television and creative agencies in New Zealand, Australia and London before making a side-step to digital, working on websites and content marketing. Long, short, written, filmed or designed - I love working on all sorts of content with all types of people and businesses. It’s a fast-moving industry which means I never stop learning and developing my skills and services.

I’m a ‘whole-brain’ thinker.

Age and experience have seen me shift from a complete ‘right-brainer’ into utilising every part of my grey matter.

Data is no longer a dirty word, and the race to output creative is no longer on. Getting to know what makes you and your business tick, understanding your audience and their needs (segmentation, personas), your goals, and KPIs helps feed into a solid, targeted and creative content strategy with clear, measurable messaging. I design marketing campaigns to work across every platform using multiple mediums, including print, video and even podcasts.

I know some things.

Besides having the ability to remember the lyrics of songs I haven’t heard for eons, I’m also highly skilled in various editing software, including Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop and After Effects. Like Sonny and Cher, pictures and words go together and I love to craft copy. Whether it’s a radio script, a brand video, a case study or an article you need, it’s all delivered with an SEO lens applied.

I can even help make your branded PowerPoint look pretty swish, but as we have already established, excel is definitely not my forte. The good news is, I know many people who are experts at the things I am not, so all is not lost.

 

Want to see my stuff?

From directing Olympic gold medallists to trained cats, working with Australian public broadcasters to global education furniture designers, I’ve had the privilege and pleasure to create some great content throughout my career. So just imagine what I can do for you.
