Mike Dann joins Bonfire as Senior Art Director as their creative team builds momentum
Bonfire’s move into creative continues with the appointment of Senior Art Director Mike Dann. Award-winning Perth-based performance agency Bonfire has appointed Mike Dann as Senior Art Director.
Bonfire established a creative department in June last year, expanding its services after 24 years of driving digital performance, to bring the agency’s depth of data and creativity together under one roof.
Mike has spent more than a decade building a name as a professional photographer and music artwork designer.
After graduating Award School in 2022, he moved into advertising, bringing a sharp eye for craft and production.
Mike joins Bonfire from Marketforce, where he worked as an Art Director. His recent work includes campaigns for the Fremantle Football Club, Binge, TAFE, and Harvey Beef amongst a host of other clients.
Bonfire General Manager of Creative, Rene Le Merle, said,
‘Mike’s talent was clear from day one. We are stoked to have him on board, helping to shore up our creative department and delivering consistently polished creative for clients.’
Mike has already been working across Bonfire’s campaign for Luma, ‘We Hear You’, which launched in January. He said:
‘The opportunity to help shape a creative department so soon after its inception is wildly exciting. Especially when you know the people behind the wheel are as hungry to do great work as you are.’
Bonfire Creative Director, Luke Williams, said,
‘Adding Mike to the team could not have come at a better time. His skills and passion for all things craft are going to be needed for the work in the pipeline. I’m about as buzzed as you can get for Mike to continue his career at Bonfire.’
With Mike on board, Bonfire’s creative department is set to keep building in 2026, with more campaigns already in motion.
