His leadership on The Collective's AT&T National Retail Marketing account and his pivotal role in launching brands such as Home Advisor and Vari and creating campaigns for clients including L'Oreal, McDonald's, Petco, Google, Airbnb and Dyson highlight his experience in the industry.
Marcus Wesson will serve as Principal Creative Director of the newly formed group. Marcus is recognised for his outstanding work at top-tier agencies such as TBWA\Chiat\Day, DDB, and 72andSunny.

In their new roles, Neil and Marcus will revitalize and reshape the development and implementation of distinctive advertising experiences across various projects, platforms and media. As creative partners for production companies, agencies and brands, they will lead teams in creating and delivering innovative content to bring ideas to life, using Digital Domain's award-winning talent and tools.
The new hires at Digital Domain mark a significant step in the company's evolution, positioning them as a division focussed on the future and ready to handle new technology for advertisers, gaming and the new media landscape.
Both of them will report directly to Lala Gavgavian, President and COO of Digital Domain, who said, "Today marks an exciting new chapter for our Advertising Experiences unit as we relaunch under the visionary leadership of our newly appointed executive team.
