A fireside conversation about how creativity evolves across generations and mediums. David brings four decades of shaping some of the most iconic brand narratives in advertising history; Finn brings a USC film school education and a coming-of-age feature film shooting in NYC this July. The conversation explores the parallels between commercial and cinematic storytelling, how audience expectations have shifted, the role of technology and AI (where the two don't quite agree), and what the thread between selling sneakers and making audiences cry about a New York coming-of-age story looks like. It's a conversation about craft, conviction, and why the fundamentals of great storytelling don't change even when everything around them does.
