Creatives on Speed: Paul Middleton, Art Director & Camino 'Pilgrim’


Listen Later

FasterIdeas.com founder and editor Joanne Oatts talks to Paul Middleton, Art Director & Camino 'Pilgrim’.

Paul speaks about how a love of TV ads growing up fuelled his passion to pursue his chosen career. He tells us how writing to his hero - advertising legend Dave Trott - helped him garner the advice needed to get there. And he shares his enthusiasm for continual learning, through observation of habits and patterns in the work of other creatives.

Paul also talks about his adventures walking the legendary pilgrim route, the Camino de Santiago, and how this has inspired his upcoming book, 'Slow Down Pilgrim'.
