By carefully grounding extraordinary ideas and images in reality-based settings, Conopask (left) has cultivated a style he describes as “subtle sci-fi”.  Through the combination of delicately executed visual effects and thoughtful directorial realism, Conopask has been able to craft unique and memorable worlds populated with identifiably human characters. The result is a body of work that boasts a bold, visual style with an earnest, evocative core.

“Simply put: They get it. They get me,” says Conopask of his decision to sign with The Sweet Shop.  “Their roster and track record are exceptional. I love their global reach; their ability to go weird places, do weird things. They have a great worldwide team and I am excited to be a part of it.”

Before joining The Sweet Shop, Conopask lived and worked in both Los Angeles and Chicago, creating everything from music videos to interactive content before settling down in New York to focus on his commercial work.

“I’m terribly excited by Noah’s signing to us” says Claire Davidson, Executive Producer of The Sweet Shop Asia/M.E.NA. “His craftsmanship and aesthetic certainly cut through to the Asian market and I’m really looking forward to doing our first project here together in the region.”

The Sweet Shop’s CEO/Founding Partner Paul Prince added, “Noah is a contemporary visualist in the true sense of the term. I’m honored that he has chosen our group to manage his global career. Watch this space.”

Conopask’s signing is indicative of The Sweet Shop’s continued commitment to expanding talent and developing directors who have a strong voice with skills spread across the industry.
