Sam Gan is a Melbourne based Art Director originally from New Zealand, working across TVCs and narrative projects.

​

She began her creative journey at just 21, starting as a Stylist at Ogilvy & Mather. She honed her skills across homewares, fashion, and food styling before making the leap across the ditch—where she discovered her passion for Art Direction.

​

With over ten years of industry experience, Sam has designed more than 250 sets across New Zealand and Australia. Her commercial portfolio includes campaigns for brands such as Swisse, Jetstar, Ford, Queen, Platypus, Officeworks, Square, Nike and Specsavers.

Storytelling and representation are at the heart of Sam’s creative process and prides herself for creating fun, safe, and collaborative working environments. She brings her strong stylistic sensibility to every project, drawing from both her agency roots and narrative background.​
