My Creative Process.

Roadmap

Every project is unique and I believe strongly that a thoughtful and methodical creative development process leads to great marketing and branding solutions. By having a clear roadmap all stakeholders are guided through the creative process while having a clear understanding of the end goal.

01: Creative Development

Creative exploration and iteration are an integral part of developing thoughtful and engaging creative. On every project I propose several creative or design directions to examine the goals from different points of view.

02: Focus + Execution

Together we focus the creative down to a singular and powerful idea and campaign. Additionally I look at how the deliverables or brand campaign will be implemented across a wide range of media from video through to print marketing and social media.

03: PRODUCTION + ANIMATION

The right resources and talent are integrated into the production and animation process. I tap into my network of live action production companies, designers, animators, editors and copy writers. A clear pre-production process and the right resource allocation makes for a smooth delivery.

04: FINISH + DELIVERY

Media is consumed across all media and the final materials are organized and delivered specifically for that. From broadcast to social media feeds the right assets and toolkits are delivered to be turn key and easy to use.

Campaigns

I believe good creative applies to entertainment and lifestyle brands alike. Additionally it is important to look at the media landscape holistically – and provide the right creative and assets for the clients individual needs.
