Creative Director
By developing the thematic story and identifying the reinforcing elements, the creative director can then map out the journey from inspiration to installation for any project. Scott's approach is to work with both internal and external teams to establish, maintain and execute the creative vision. This inclusive approach means that he acts as a lens to focus everyone's efforts. When situations change, it is Scott's job to find alternatives that still meet the creative "north star". Communication is essential to successful creative development. Scott is able to keep key stakeholders informed while translating the vision to the designers and craftspeople. Whether it is a large scale event like "Howl-O-Scream" at Busch Gardens, an exclusive guest experience like "The Vault of Souls" or a corporate fund raiser like The Lion's Eye Institute's "Eye Ball" Scott's approach and experience leads to success.
