Rising Tides Live: Post Production Speed

Listen Later
In this session of Rising Tides Live, hosted by Shawn Walchef, the community rallied around a clear challenge: how can content teams move faster without sacrificing purpose? The guest was Scot Turner, a London-based hospitality consultant and creative thinker, who recently joined Shawn and their families on a vacation in Bulgaria. What started as a transatlantic DM has grown into a real-world collaboration rooted in media, mindset, and shared values. From filming with iPhones on the Black Sea to launching a cross-team YouTube workflow, Shawn and Scot sparked a rich conversation about systems, speed, and how two hospitality pros are using technology not just to create content—but to create time.

Interview Takeaways:
  • Speed Is a Skill You Can Build – Great content isn’t just about quality — it’s about timing. Scot Turner emphasized that post-production speed is something you can train for. By making speed a habit, not an afterthought, brands can stay ahead of the conversation and maximize impact.
  • Systems Don’t Limit Creativity — They Unlock It – Whether in a kitchen or a content studio, having a clear workflow gives you the freedom to move fast without losing intention. Scot likened media production to restaurant operations: when everyone knows the process, you gain efficiency and clarity.
  • Publish First, Then Polish if You Must – The traditional mindset says hold onto content until it’s perfect. But in today’s fast-paced world, waiting often means missing the moment. Scot challenged creators to flip the habit: publish quickly, and make adjustments after. Momentum matters more than perfection.
