About Paul Wightman

I’m an endlessly curious creative polymath, creative marketing & communication strategist, commercial filmmaker and creative ideation facilitator, with particular experience of devising, producing and directing moving image led campaigns and big idea publicity stunts for global sport / entertainment sponsor brands / rights holders and agencies. As such, I’ve overseen campaigns and moving image projects (from TV commercials and ad-funded broadcast series to global news feeds and social content), for brands such as, Adidas, Alfa Romeo, Barclays, BMW, Breitling, Canon, Caterham, Carlsberg, Castrol, Cheltenham Festival, Continental & Corona Beer (and that’s just A-C); at events across the globe such as, All Tomorrow’s Parties, the FIFA World Cup, Formula 1 World Championship, Glastonbury Festival, Olympic Games and Red Bull Air Race; with talent such as Davids’ Beckham & Coulthard, The 1975 and Love Island’s Megan Barton Hanson; and for agencies such as Borkowski, The Fourth Angel, Performance Communications, Pretty Green and 3 Monkeys.But whoever the client and whatever the challenge, I’m first and foremost a passionate advocate and student of big ideas and their power to change the world for the better, particularly when aligned with authentic brands which place environmental action and inclusivity at their heart.Naturally, my love of ideas goes hand-in-hand with a love of sparky, creative people, and as such I’ve founded a creative meetup group in my native Oxford, sat on the board of the Oxford Technology & Media Network for 5 years and still sit on the committee at Soho Farmhouse and the Sofar Sounds Global Review Team (live music being my true passion).My current fascination (Arts Council funded research, in conjunction with Rebellion Film Studios), is the enormous untapped potential of Virtual Production techniques (as used in Disney’s The Mandalorian) for telling brand stories.
