Award-Winning Creative Minds Unite to Launch Supergiant, a Pioneering Immersive Experience Studio in Sydney, London, and Singapore
A collective of distinguished creative, event, design, and production professionals have come together to establish Supergiant, a groundbreaking immersive experience, content, and entertainment studio with bases in Sydney, London, and Singapore.
Supergiant is the brainchild of Heath Campanaro, former director at Imagination, and Heckler co-founders Will Alexander and Jamie Watson, along with ex-Imagination creative director Simon Connell. The studio aims to merge design, VFX, entertainment, lighting, technology, and music to deliver culturally iconic projects and immersive experiences.
Campanaro, who spent the last 20 years leading the country’s largest experience agency, and Connell, renowned for creating some of the most dynamic events in the country, have teamed up with Alexander and Watson. The Heckler duo, known for their globally awarded design and post-production work on films, TVCs, and experiential installations, bring their expertise to create a unique and innovative creative offering.
Supergiant Opens in Sydney, London, and Singapore
Supergiant’s first major project was at Glastonbury, where the team provided large format content design and production for three of the festival’s most significant stages. The ‘Pyramid Stage’ and the ‘Other Stage’ featured over 250 motion graphics packages crafted by Supergiant in collaboration with Stanley Donwood, the festival’s graphic artist.
Glastonbury’s new Dragonfly installation, created by Arcadia Spectacular, and the ‘DJ Stage’ showcased breathtaking 3D motion content during the Opening Ceremony with Fatboy Slim. Supergiant also collaborated with Australian immersive media studio Astral Projekt and Barry McGuire, an Aboriginal Songman from the Balladong, Whadjuk, Noongar nation, to narrate the Dreamtime story of the dragonfly.

Heath Campanaro, Co-founder and Managing Director of Supergiant shares his excitement: “Supergiant was established to craft experiences that we all love, crave, and rave about. We aim to entertain and immerse people in design, music, light, technology, and ideas that create lasting memories.
