FasterIdeas.com founder and editor Joanne Oatts talks to Andrew Boulton, Copywriting, Senior Lecturer & Author.
Our final episode of this series (boo!).
Not only is Andrew a fantastic copywriter, but he's also passing on his knowledge and talents to the next generation of creatives - as a Senior Lecturer on University of Lincoln's BA Creative Advertising course. Andrew talks about how he stumbled upon his career (very common for copywriters) and how this branched into teaching.
Andrew recently produced a guide for teachers about copywriting which went viral on LinkedIn. And now he's gone and written a book - Copywriting is - for anyone who's interested in the art, craft and magic that is copywriting. Links to this, and all the books Andrew mentions, below.

FasterIdeas.com founder and editor Joanne Oatts talks to Ruben Delgado, Creative Strategist & Choreographer
Ruben is a New York-based senior brand and communications expert with a background in dance and choreography - two areas of expertise that seem unconnected. But as Ruben explains, they're anything but.
We explore his dance training, his pursuit of the NY street dance style Litefeet, and how this evolved into his fascination with breaking down movement and using dance as a research tool. Plus we discuss the importance of celebrating all your life experiences and being proud of what you bring to the table as a creative.
