Pacific Change Makers: Introducing Oliver Nobetau

Where dialogue meets design — launching Lowy Institute’s first video podcast.

Pacific Change Makers – The First Video Podcast

In early 2024, I helped the Lowy Institute take a bold step into a new era of storytelling by producing their very first video podcast — a visual evolution of the Pacific Change Makers series. After producing their audio podcasts since 2020, I pitched the transition to video as a way to deepen engagement and give voice and presence to the people at the heart of the Pacific region.

I designed the full visual setup — from camera placement and furniture layout to the use of a central portrait screen that showcased dynamic branding and elevated the in-room presence. Working closely with the Institute’s team, I created a tailored intro and outro sequence that matched the established Pacific Change Makers identity while setting the tone for a fresh chapter in their digital storytelling.

The debut episode featured Oliver Nobetau, the FDC Pacific Fellow from Papua New Guinea — a dynamic young voice in Pacific affairs. His insights on climate change, regional security, and cultural identity were matched with an elegant, professional setting that gave the conversation the presence it deserved.

This project added a new layer to my ongoing creative partnership with the Lowy Institute, expanding our shared commitment to thoughtful, impactful, and beautifully executed content.

The Video Podcast

Hi, I’m Josh — the heart behind Jaygo Creative.

Jaygo Creative is my creative studio based in Sydney, where I bring together art, design and technology to craft meaningful experiences. With over 20 years of multidisciplinary experience across events, visual storytelling and AV, I work across three interconnected spheres: Experiential Art, Content Design, and Creative Technology.

Whether it’s transforming a space, capturing a powerful moment, or using tech in unexpected ways to solve creative challenges, I bring a thoughtful blend of artistic insight and technical know-how to every project. I’m especially passionate about teaching others how to use technology with intention — to create, to communicate, and to connect.

From bold brand moments to subtle, sensory-driven ideas, my work is grounded in care, curiosity and collaboration. I’m here to make work that moves people — emotionally, intellectually and experientially.

Let’s create something that sparks wonder.

Curious?
