VERSUS is a director duo comprising Serbian-Australian Tanya Babic and Indonesian-Australian Jason Sukadana. Meeting at art school, the two bonded over a shared creative approach of combining contemporary art theory with commercial aesthetics. Known for pairing striking visuals with a commitment to authentic storytelling, VERSUS craft compelling work with a particular focus on music, documentary and the arts. Whether directing the Wu Tang Clan or rural Australian publicans, Tanya and Jason have forged a career in bringing these sensibilities to a broad range of screen work. This has resulted in award-winning campaigns for international giants including Nike, Google, Airbnb and Youtube, to home grown brands such as Sydney Opera House, The Australian Ballet, Myer and Optus. The two directors are supported by a super talented team at Vs, STUDIO, a production facility purpose-built to bring their creative vision to life.
