    Through the juxtaposition of an imposing giant robot and the charming voice of a British comedy actress, I created and directed showpieces the worlds premier FinTech conference in Las Vegas and Amsterdam.

    By day “The Red Stars Secret Compound” took curious festival goers into an immersive hideout of time traveling sonic renegades to complete music based missions.

    If successful, they won access to the secret all night rave headlined by high profile surprise guest acts from across the festival.

    Six sunrise photoshoots in six epic and wild locations across the UK to produce surreal images for an easter campaign that looked like ai before ai was a thing.

    A challenge, yes. An iconic campaign, most definitely.

    After creating concepts that won the pitch for The Zeitgeist Agency, I directed the lighting and experience of the night. Guests were immersed in a Studio 54 inspired house party that invaded a jaw dropping villa.

    Balancing exclusivity & opulence with unhinged & unexpected moments, we created a rebellious feeling in the “House of Lad” to leave guests feeling like “they were there”FinTech conference in Las Vegas and Amsterdam.

WHY ME? WHY AWE?

I do many things, but I’m only really doing one thing…

Tour production, social media strategy, festival creation, expedition leading, filmmaking, lighting design, brand activations, storytelling training and immersive experience design. My eclectic career felt chaotic, until I realised what connected it all…Awe.

Feeling the emotion of Awe is the first principle behind all entertainment and events. It’s THE psychological and physiological reason people gather for any occasion or spectacle. It’s felt by all, but understood by few.

Helping people feel Awe has always been the one thing I actually do.

Realising this lead me learn the new science of awe, and understanding it turned what once felt like hinderances into my best assets.

Obsession for details, putting the human experience first, adopting a beginners mind and absurd optimism.

I now use these principles to help agencies, festivals and brands transform events and places into awe-inspiring unforgettable experiences.
