Brief

John Darbyshire, founder of newly launched JD Communications, is obviously no shrinking violet. Rather than a boring picture of himself on the fire escape of his office, as is the norm for such occasions, the announcement of the company launch is accompanied by a double-sided model agency photograph of Darbyshire, a former Australian Division One rugby player, in both city slicker and weekend action man modes. Perhaps the model image will help him perform as well in a pitch as on one.
