Created is the podcast that tells sensational stories about how brilliant advertising and design ideas came to life. The creative process, the internal battles, the client struggles, the production drama, the never never giving up to get from good to great. There are loads of award-winning ideas pinned up all over our walls, but it’s the unbelievably uphill battle to get it made, and get it made right, that we are all dying to hear about. Because it’s not just about creativity, it’s about getting it created.
