I've honed a meticulous Six-Step Creative Process that guides projects from inception to completion. This structured approach starts with an in-depth Understanding of the client's needs, followed by Ideation, where creative concepts are born and diversified. Concept Development refines these ideas into actionable plans, which are then rigorously assessed during the Evaluation phase. Execution brings these plans to life, ensuring each project's vision is realized with precision. The process culminates in Reflection, a critical review that fuels continuous improvement and innovation. This cycle not only ensures high-quality outputs but also fosters a dynamic environment where creative solutions thrive.
A closer look:
Two Creative Approaches to produce creative work in response to a creative brief. Fast and Slow, Deliberation and Agility. Both equally effective but deployed for different reasons.
DosTwo is an art director/copywriter team. We offer ourselves as a creative resource to agencies. We're driven by the power of ideas.
We specialise in Brand Communication, Digital Marketing and Experience Design.
A presentation ultimately to lay out my philosophy on integrating with other people in a team, a department or an organisation and how that culture can grow and become successful.

My approach to creating effective, award winning solutions is to lead intimate, relaxed sessions with a team from a whiteboard through a programme of five controlled transformational phases of group work; discover, interpret, plan, ideate and execute. From the front I use series of effective thinking techniques to encourage associative third-person perspective brainstorming along a tight direction as we move towards each milestone and ultimately the deadline. This process incorporates the three design disciplines; Tapping into the history of classical design (form and content), the strategies of design thinking (customer needs) and in synthesis with the requirements of computational design (real time, mobile computing).
This was a final interview presentation deck for the Creative Director position at gyro: in Manchester. I was down to the last two candidates and I was asked to present my 'best' piece of work - meaning, a piece of work where I was at my best. So I chose the New Balance brand proposition pitch and toolkit development I creatively led for nine months during 2016 at ZAK.

Stuart Wilson 360º Creative Director - Career Biographystuwilson.co.uk
Career biography of an experienced, 360° Creative Director/Strategist with a natural inclination towards emerging products and platforms that drive social connection, while also retaining a command of the traditional communication channel mix. A creative polymath originally from a design background who has developed into a multifaceted writer, methodical strategic thinker and inspirational leader, equally comfortable working on both domestic and global briefs.
Reveal & Reduce the threat of Deep Fake Technologystuwilson.co.uk
We've moved from no concern over our privacy to unabashed openness back to an acute awareness of the value of how our actions can in-turn affect us when we give it up to corporations and platforms. There is an awakening to that responsibility in the mainstream due to Facebook data breaches and the vulnerability of it's systems to manipulation, not to mention awareness of how the algorithm works in filter bubbling. This potential context collapse is related to themes of trust, identity and reality - what is real and what is fake? Now there is the proliferation of 'Deep-fake' technology what can we do to protect ourselves against attacks on democracy and if we can longer tell the difference between counterfeit and authenticity where does that leave us?
Tattooed Baby - The art of telling big stories in small spacesstuwilson.co.uk
Tattooed Baby is an eBook all about the propagation of effective onscreen display advertising. It is a collection of 150 insights split across 15 process oriented chapters, at least 5 insights per chapter and every insight written under 140 characters because a Tattooed Baby should always be short and sweet for today’s short and sweet attention span.
This handbook is about sharing the discipline of using art and code and word economy to tell stories through tiny letterboxes smaller than the size of a classified newspaper ad. It’s about learning to do more with less. Less pixels, less frames, less words, less time, less k size. And these moments can be even more direct than direct mail. Fundamentally, the art of telling big stories in small spaces boils down to following Abram Games’ original philosophy of deriving “maximum meaning” from “minimum means”.
Art + story + way finding + teleportation = A Tattooed Baby
The aim of this book is to lift the overall quality of output for all. To try and rid the world of poor, forgettable advertising by sharing best practices learned over fifteen years of professional experience, one pixel at a time.
It’s a big, little handbook to help students, as well as professionals, who want to increase their success in onscreen display advertising throughout it’s lifecycle, as part of a wider digital or integrated marketing communications strategy. If you can tell a story in ODA you can tell it anywhere. Small will always scale up. Above all, Tattooed Baby is there as a reminder to us all to breed a motivated attitude in ourselves and inspire our teams to realign the perceived value of not just how creative we can be in these small spaces but how wonderful it feels to witness them and engage with them as an audience.

Comparing Stability and Sustainability in Agile SystemsRob Healy
Copy of the presentation given at XP2024 based on a research paper.
In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
