Any advice on being a leader for the first time? I got hired to run a small section of the agency and have a couple of amazing designers but I’m feeling massive imposter syndrome. They are both so well spoken and I know I bring value but sometimes I feel like I’m not good enough. I really want to develop as a leader and mentor.

LEAD FROM THE FRONT

Coming from a designer myself we’re just appreciative of someone who provides helpful feedback and there when we need creative input. Understand your team may have creators block at time, especially in a stressful era like this. :)

How careful are you guys about timing your scripts before they get presented? I'm always super attentive to make sure there's breathing room in my stuff, but I see other creatives pitching work that's easily 15 seconds too long. Is it better to go in with too much to say and trim it down?

Hey fellow fish. I’m wanting some reference to an eclectic editing style that incorporates a bunch of filmic styles into the narrative.

I just can’t for the life of me remember what it was for. Any suggestions would be massively appreciated!
