The sweet smell of success (and Old Spice)

I love an overnight success story.

And it’s not even a couple of years since former media sales rep Christiaan Van Vuuren (aka Bondi Hipster Dom) talked at Mumbrella360 about how he was living at his parents to afford to pursue his video making vocation.

Now, through production house Jungleboys and with brother Connor, he’s directing Old Spice commercials with Isaiah Mustafa.

That’s what I call career progression.
