Meet Dylan Mahoney, our Associate Creative Directo Meet Dylan Mahoney, our Associate Creative Director, whose creative vision is shaped by a decade performing on the world’s biggest stages.

Before stepping into the world of creative direction, Dylan toured the globe as a professional dancer, performing with icons like Kylie Minogue, Rita Ora, and Ricky Martin (to name a few). That lived experience brings a rare, instinctive understanding of how to craft moments that truly captivate an audience.

Today, Dylan blends that performer’s intuition with bold storytelling, innovative thinking, and deep technical expertise. With over ten years of experience both in front of and behind the camera, and as a proud sixth-generation family performer, Dylan’s work is rooted in legacy but driven by what’s next.
From animatics and pitch decks to managing creative teams and exploring emerging technologies, Dylan brings a wide range of skills to every project. His approach is thoughtful, original, and always grounded in a strong work ethic.

We’re proud to have Dylan in the DAE Global family, where his unique perspective and creative leadership help us deliver unforgettable experiences around the world.

Our company began in the world of theatre where sa Our company began in the world of theatre where saying "good luck" is traditionally considered bad luck. Instead, different cultures have developed their own unique ways to wish performers well before a show. 
 
In Australia (where our head office is located), you’ll often hear “chookas!” – a unique and endearing term, said to date back to the early 1900s. When theatres had a full audience, performers would be able to afford a chicken dinner (“chook” being the slang word for chicken). It is said that someone from the audience would yell "chook it is!" to indicate a good house, and over time this evolved into the "chookas", now fondly used today.

Here at DAE we still wish everyone “chookas” before a presentation or major event, no matter where we are in the world.
 
What are some of the ways you say “good luck”?

Have you ever wondered how a ceremony comes togeth Have you ever wondered how a ceremony comes together? How does a creative idea go from exactly that – an imaginative concept – to a large-scale, complex, final performance?

Sketches. Scripts. Design. Choreography. Timing. Lighting. Equipment. Rehearsals. Direction. Visual effects. Motion graphics. Filming. Props. Safety. Security. Each element plays a crucial role in this intricate process, yet when the lights go up and the vision unfolds, the journey of this transformation is pure magic ✨ 

Take a look behind the scenes of the Victoria 2026 handover ceremony at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games as dance rehearsals and content storyboards evolve from sketch to stage.
