Takeshi TAKADA

Despite making the move from Tokyo to Brisbane, Australia while barely speaking a word of English, visual effects master Takeshi Takada was able not only to establish himself in the local industry but go on to co-found a highly awarded creative visual effects company ALT.VFX. Thriving in Brisbane’s multicultural milieu, he not only manages studios in Australia, Japan and the USA, he also champions creativity at a local level. We spoke to Takeshi about life in Brisbane, some of his favorite spots and always packing a wetsuit.
