Michael Siu

Writer - Producer - Director at Mango Moon Media Arts
Melbourne, Australia

Sumario

After graduating from RMIT (formerly PIT) with a Bachelor of Arts (Fine Art) in 1991, Michael has always had two veins of employment: one as a writer, presenter, producer and director for the arenas of film, video, tv, online content and cinema; the other being a spectrum of roles in the corporate world. Please peruse both CVs namely Creative Output and Corporate Output. On the 9.9.99 Michael registered Mango Moon, the umbrella business, for advertising and marketing assisting SMEs, corporations and government departments with media arts requirements. He revolutionised the On Hold Messages industry by introducing Phone Media under a sub division entitled Listen While You Wait producing programmes named as Eavesdrop, Reporting Live, New Testimony (non biblical), Phone Magazine, Comedy On Hold and Soundscapes. Other subsidiary businesses under the newly formed name Mango Moon Industries (circa 2009) included AAEAA Access And Exit All Areas, FDTC Family DVD Time Capsules, COPS Creative On Hold Productions, PTMS Professional Telemarketing Management Solutions, PON Plate Of Nature, RAB Rent A Butler, TTT Take Two Tees. Following advice from his mentors, Michael decided to focus exclusively on media arts production for the remainder of 2016 and 2017. He recently arrived back from USA and Canada where he pitched 4 feature films ready for production to film and television studios. Please contact Michael directly should you require engagement of his services or wish to request his comprehensive Life Pie 1968 to 2016 inclusive. Michael and MMI wishes you a pleasant day!
