S1, Ep3: Dan Shipton | Creative Director | From Brief to Brilliance

  • Summary

  • This episode I'm chatting with Dan Shipton, whose work with artists including Kate Bush, Dua Lipa, Take That, Little Mix and Stormzy has been seen by millions on stages and screens around the world.     As Creative Director, Dan is in charge of forming distinct performances from often nothing but a single music track. His company Black Skull Creative will then work on everything from the set design, lighting, screen content, costume, and choreography. All building into a singular, cohesive creative.     Other career landmarks for Dan include working with Danny Boyle on the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony, creating the most talked-about moment with Ellie Goulding at The Royal Variety Performance and recently branching away from music and working with dinosaurs. 

     

    Three Takeaways From This Episode Include:
    • Turning an idea into a reality by simply vocalising it.
    • How Dan made Steven Spielberg's “dream come true”.
    • A clever trick to remove fear from both the creative process and when beginning a new challenge.
