Scanty people in the Australian media could claim such a diverse and accomplished multimedia CV as Nick Place. At various stages of a 30year career that started as a copy boy on Melbourne afternoon broadsheet The Herald, Nick has worked in senior editorial and writing positions within newspapers, magazines, television, radio and the internet. He has covered international sporting events, edited many publications, been a film reviewer, worked as head writer and producer on livetoair commercial network television shows and sports coverage, and even been responsible for editorial development of The Age Online (for which he was nominated for a Walkley Award). Known for his creativity, people skills, energy and ideas, Nick is involved in all areas of Media Giants particularly fresh business, start up projects and editorial and ingenious consultancies to existing and prospective clients. Away from the Giants, he has developed a reputation as a writer of fiction, for the page and screen. He has had five novels published, including a crime novel, Roll With It’, and four children’s novels (see nick place.me for details). He also wrote and co produced an internationally recognized brief film, The Cook’. He’s covered State and Federal elections for daily newspapers, been a satirical columnist for major metro newspapers, contributed to dozens of magazines and websites, served as a media adviser to two Victorian Premiers, written or edited top selling nonfiction books and worked on TV shows, radio programs and videos. He’s also edited or published more than 100 magazines, and has developed membership and marketing campaigns for AF football clubs. Today he brings all that experience to Media Giants, the company he confounded. Michael has a hand son role in all aspects of Media Giants’ operations, especially project management and new business development. He still believes his life’s lofty water mark was being interviewed by footballing legend Jack Dyer on World of Sport as a 13yearold and being called Robert’ throughout the whole interview. Over almost two decades, dozens of journalists, copywriters, we producers, videographers, photographers, editors, subeditors, sales people, and other media operatives have been proud to call themselves Giants, and we’ve been proud to have them on board. We demand excellence and self motivation from our crew. Being a Giant means being versatile and multiskilled, with the maximum commitment to quality, user engagement and client message. Plus being a joy to work with, within our team and for our clients. Member of staff most apt to soil the carpet. She has since developed her skills to the point that she is now in charge of client liaison and greetings, managing all ball shaped objects in the Richmond area, guarding the balcony waterfowl and overseeing the ongoing motivation (well, licking and cuddling) of the Giant staff. Head of fresh business within our speedy growing Canine Division, she isn’t getting any younger but, then again, neither are the human company directors.
