Young Guns Adam & Stacey - Don't Tell Us To Shush Up!

No-One’s Gonna Cramp Their Style

- Marilynn Mclachlan

Adam Middleton and Stacy Heyman are no strangers to marching to the beat of their own drum – or getting what they want. And the 25-year-old, risktaking creatives are out to prove they have what it takes to nail The Block.

“Yes, it all happened on a whim, but we’re defi nitely glad we did it,” reveals Adam. “It’s an experience you’d never get in any other capacity of your life.”

Aged 19, Adam dropped out of Massey University, where he was studying industrial design, to pursue his dream of working at the famous Weta Workshop.

“It was something I wanted to do since seeing the fi rst Lord of the Rings many, many years ago,” he shares. And it was a decision that paid off in spades. Within a year, he was working at Weta and now spends his days drawing as a senior concept designer on fi lms, TV shows and video games.
