Told through vignettes of daily observations, Living Creative delves into the lives of modern-day creatives exploring their pursuit of authentic expression.
Mission
This film ignites crucial conversations about modern creativity: How do we harness it for our benefit, not just for consumption? It explores the aspects of an individual’s creativity while challenging traditional career definitions and spotlighting resilience, empathy, and unique perspectives.

Approach
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to creativity. Like freelancers disrupting the 9-5 corporate model, our docu-series will break from traditional formats. While each vignette follows a standard outline, it adapts to its subject, employing local DoPs or exploring new media as needed.
