About

I’m Dunc Blair, a Creative Director, Copywriter and Scriptwriter based in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland). I build brand voices and campaigns across TV, radio, video and digital—always starting with the question: what’s the job the idea needs to do?

My work spans integrated campaign development, long-form storytelling, and character-driven advertising systems. I’ve led and produced creative for clients including Air New Zealand, Les Mills International, Star Insure, Wegovy and others, and I’m especially proud of work that earns recognition for both creativity and effectiveness.
