Director/creative director Steve Fuller has joined New York-based studio Sibling Rivalry. Known for the Emmy Award-winning main titles for AMC’s Mad Men as well as for HBO’s Nurse Jackie and the HBO miniseries The Pacific, Fuller has also been active in spotmaking, with directorial credits for McDonald’s and CB2.
Fuller, whose creative through-line is visual storytelling, comes aboard Sibling Rivalry’s directorial roster that includes Mikon van Gastel, Joe Wright, and Pete Sillen. Fuller now reunites with van Gastel who first hired him at Imaginary Forces. There, Fuller forged a reputation for inspired, original projects for networks, agencies and feature films. Van Gastel went on to become a co-founder of Sibling Rivalry with Wright. Maggie Meade is exec producer at Sibling Rivalry, a studio which aligns design thinking and production.
Fuller was formerly repped by Go Film. Earlier, he was creative director/director at Imaginary Forces and prior to that an art director at MTV.
“We’ve known Steve for over a decade so welcoming him to Sibling Rivalry is like a return to the nest,” said van Gastel. “His experience, like ours, crosses over branding, titles and commercials, all design-driven storytelling.”
Sibling Rivalry’s clientele includes Lincoln Motor Company, Nickelodeon, Unilever, Yoplait, Verizon, Bloomberg and EA Sports.
