TAITO KAWATA

Taito is a director. In practice, this means that he spends his weekends writing treatments. Specialising in art and lifestyle, Taito is known for bringing a sense of ethnic aesthetics to the advertising scene.

 Taito has worked at Cocoa for 10 years, being the original founder of the company. Taito is a “Quiet observer” who is driven by the infatuation for building worlds through images and sounds.

 From Pre to Post Taito loves being fully hands on with his projects.

PAULIINA TEIRIKARI

Pauliina has been producing over ten years. During that time she has been involved in all kinds of projects, small and big, easier and challenging. Pauliina is very calm and has good nerves, which is a bonus when dealing with strange situations. She has won many awards over the years, the latest being a Bronze lion from Cannes this year.
