How I can help you.

 

Creative Strategy

Client briefs can be contradictory and confusing, I can help you find your way through the uncrackable briefs that come your way. It all begins by working out what we’re trying to do. Sounds simple enough, but creating focused, behaviour shifting insights around a clear and solvable business challenge is the essence of any good creative strategy. I love figuring out what makes people tick, then translating that into a clear and creative path forward.

Creative Direction

You need someone who’ll get up to speed quickly and see the project through. I can help you from start to completion. Sometimes my clients need me to manage briefings and ideation sessions along with feedback for the creative and account teams. Some like me to get in front of their clients to present the work, others like me to handle the production, directing shoots and managing suppliers. I can help you with all of that, in the short or long term.

Copy & Art Direction

Ideas! You need’em and I got’em, lots of them. Having worked in PR, Experiential, Shopper, ATL, Digital, Media, Social, B2B and Healthcare agencies and for both big, small and startup clients. I’ve written scripts, shot films, invented games, delivered world firsts and given away millions in prizes and experiences. I know the benefits found in integrated concept development. Copy Vs Art? It’s like exercising different muscles, I can do both or work in with existing teams.
