I am undertaking an exciting new venture in partnership with the incredible Creative Director Ami Gainford and a raft of other talented creatives and producers.One x One Creative is a brand activation agency – creating and activating brands, working both directly with brands, and alongside other creative agencies. My unusual career route from city solicitor to live event production manager, client services director to executive producer and many in between has given me the varied skill set and raft of incredible contacts and suppliers that allow One x One to push boundaries and achieve brilliant results. Whilst the creative is the bedrock on which everything at One x One is based, without solid foundations and knowledge on how we can deliver the end product it is just imaginings on a page.I believe the combination of an open and inquisitive mind, with a detailed and process driven brain are what we need to bring brilliant design to life. I work to drive our delivery partners to push their own boundaries in the art of the possible, be it in the materials we are using, or the actual production process – learning with each new project and using this knowledge to inform us in the next.In nearly 20 years of production I know that every project is different, each has its own challenges, and equally offers its own very individual rewards. The job never gets easier, and it is this continual learning curve that drives us to keep going.www.onexone.uk
