1) Gazing into your crystal ball, what do you envision for the industry—creatively speaking and/or from a business standpoint—in 2017? 

2) What’s your New Year’s resolution, creatively speaking and/or from a business standpoint, for your company, agency or division? And if you like, tell us briefly about a current project you are working on in early 2017? 

3) What’s the most relevant business and/or creative lesson you learned in 2016 and how will you apply it to foster success in 2017? 

4) Do you have a personal New Year’s resolution that you can you share?

1) Creatively I think this is the year where innovation and emotion merge. We’ll see compelling storytelling through techniques such as experiential, VR, and AI. This trend will build stronger connections between brands and audiences that are measured, refined and targeted to emotional influence. Clearly the challenge for all us content creators is to tell authentic stories that generate a wide variety of entertainment at a price that makes everyone happy. The old adage of FAST-CHEAP-GOOD, you only get two. Is now FAST-CHEAP-GREAT – how do we deliver all three?

2) There’s amazing talent out in the world and I want to find the right people for the job. It’s not always the most obvious choice, sometimes the riskiest approach can provide the most unique outcome. My resolution is literally thinking outside the box as much as possible.

3) It’s not as much about keeping up with current trends as it is adapting them into the most effective work. Yes, you could create an innovative idea but if you don’t know what do with it, it falls flat.
