Our Story

2002

Dream Engine was founded
by Ryan Spanger in
Melbourne, Australia.

“I always had a passion for filmmaking and visual communication. I completed a post-graduate diploma in Film and Television at VCA Film School, before founding Dream Engine. In the early days of the business we produced a wide range of work: from a promotional video for a building development company to short surfing documentaries for a surf DVD publication.”

We began producing videos
for a number of well known
brands

“One of our early regular clients was IBM. Working for their design department based in Sydney, we shot a lot of their Melbourne-based content. We produced a number of videos for Councils around this time. We made a video for the City of Melton featuring future Prime Minister Julia Gillard. And a training video for the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council featuring Just Jeans founder Craig Kimberley.”

Presenting at live events
and podcasting

“I presented from stage for the first time at the Superfast Business online marketing conference in Sydney. And went on to present at future event including the Local Government Communication Professionals Summit, Linkfluencer LinkedIn Training, and RMIT University. I also launched a podcast, the Web Video Marketing Show, and guested on a number of international podcasts.”

Video production in
the USA

“In 2014 I was brought to the USA by sports marketing agency Prism Communications. The company was producing web video marketing for some of the country’s top triathlon coaches. We drove across the country, stopping along the way to film coaches and athletes, including Olympic running coach Bobby McGee and legendary endurance swim coach Terry Laughlin. It was quite an adventure.”
