Meet Our Team

Company Director

Hans Bruechle

Hans is one half of the founding pair behind Birdhouse Media and wears multiple hats as Company Director. His background as a WAAPA graduate saw him start his career in front of the camera as a TV presenter and actor before he moved into radio. He still presents on Channel 7 today, and lends his voice acting to dozens of commercials each year, but at Birdhouse Hans’ main role is in creative development – dreaming up ideas and making them happen. Hans is our script writer, Director, Producer, in-house voice over talent, and BDM. When he’s not doing that he’s also a professional street artist who paints under the handle “Handbrake” and has created works for Porsche, Mercedes, Red Bull, Woolworths, McDonalds, Skullcandy, and many more high profile clients.

Company Director

Andrew Hooper

Andrew is the other half of the Birdhouse founding duo. He is the engine room of what we do and oversees not only the on-set production of our shoots but also heads up the post-production department. His skills in editing and publishing are unmatched and he has a unique ability to understand exactly what a client requires from their video content. Drew Babes has many years of experience producing commercial television programs and international documentaries, both as a camera operator & editor as well as Producer. Drew makes every single project an enjoyable and headache-free experience. Thanks Drew!

Producer

Joshua Craig

As the in-house Producer at Birdhouse Media, Joshua is the organisational force behind every project that comes through our doors. He has extensive experience in narrative-based filmmaking (think documentaries, short films, etc…) and he sees every challenge as a way to continue honing his craft. Josh is a WA Screen Academy Masters graduate and has a genuine love of creating visual content. He’s our gigantic Canadian ray of sunshine and brings a vibrant positivity to everything he does. Just wait till you jump on the phone with him, it’s infectious!

Editor

Poppy Treloar

Poppy is the youngest member of the Birdhouse team and is our energetic and passionate video editor. Originally growing up in the South West of WA in Capel, she is a Film School graduate from ECU and absolutely loves the creative process of bringing great-looking footage together in the edit room. For Poppy, the collaborative process of working with the entire Birdhouse creative team is what she enjoys most (as long as she’s got an enormous iced coffee in her hand). She brings a huge smile and a grab-bag of editing tricks in to work every day and is an essential member of the Birdhouse crew!
