MAKOTO HIRANO Creative & Film Director / Executive Producer
A passionate and innovative storyteller with a unique set of experiences as a creative and film director, executive producer, and photographer Makoto Hirano is a self-taught Renaissance man who loves jazz, literature, cinema, and cooking.
Born in Tokyo, raised in Egypt and the US, he began his career in advertising as a creative with the DYR Agency in NYC. While at DYR, he studied and experimented with film, theater, and photography. Before long, he was invited by a production company in Sydney, Australia to begin his career as a film director where he collaborated with such creative giants as David Droga, the founder of Droga 5, winning several awards including two Cannes Lions and a British D&AD.
He founded Beast Media Tokyo/LA to service various multinational clients and agencies. He worked with Godiva Chocolatier as their Creative Director/Film Director to conceive and direct over 35 commercials and web contents, helping to nearly triple their sales in seven years.
