Petit: My ‘Creativity at Scale’ playbook
In an era where every app demands a different ratio and every campaign must stretch across dozens of platforms, the old school brief of 10 hero images and some video is officially delusional.In this episode, Arielle Thomas, Motion Director, Founder of Cinema Thom, introduces a game-changing framework called Shoot Architecture. Learn how to move away from chaotic, frantic shoot days and toward a "Pulled Pork" method that ensures every piece of content has a home before the camera even clicks.Inside the Episode:The Death of the Traditional Brief: Why asking for "40 images w 10 heros" no longer works in 2026.The Pulled Pork Method: How to slow-cook your creative to get every last "shred" of value out of a single shoot.The Shoot Backbone: Why great shoots start with spreadsheets, not just mood boards.The Fatigue Formula: The literal math behind how many setups you actually need for a 12-week campaign.The 3 Tiers of Shoot Architecture: Arielle breaks down the "Three Columns" every campaign creative and brand owner needs to master:Tier 1: Paid Placements: Fixed, commercial destinations like store windows, LEDs, e-comm headers, and paid social ads.Tier 2: Organic Cadence: The calculated social output (usually 3–4 posts a week) is built on understanding your category’s fatigue rate.Tier 3: Opportunistic Catches (The Reserve): The essential "safety net" assets for last-minute billboards, gift cards, or holiday pivots.Resources Mentioned:The Shoot Architecture Workbook: Grab your free copy of the spreadsheet Arielle uses to plan 95+ assets per day. Includes the fatigue math calculator and asset matrix. 📌Link to Shoot Architecture Worksheet Key Takeaways for Brand Owners:If you commission creative work, stop asking "how much?" and start asking:What are all the placements for this campaign?What is our fatigue window for this category?What does the reserve layer look like?Are you ready to prioritise a spreadsheet before you make a moodboard?This episode is powered by Remy, the energy gummy designed to kill the 3 pm slump.Next Week on Process: We’re heading to Australian Fashion Week to talk brand architecture with the designers on the ground.

Rebuilding Australian Fashion Week, Kellie Hush spills the tea on their Trade Over Trends approach
From the editor’s desk at Harper’s Bazaar to the front lines of fashion tech and circularity, Kellie Hush has seen every evolution of the Australian style landscape. Now, as she leads the charge for a revitalised, newly not-for-profit Australian Fashion Week, Kellie is on a mission to bring the industry back to its roots: trade, community, and global recognition.In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the fashion festival to discuss the high-stakes business of the runway. Kellie gets candid about the lessons she learned from professional failure, the necessity of fantasy pieces, and why she’s trading the industrial walls of Carriageworks for the iconic backdrop of the Sydney Harbour.Inside the Episode:The Career Sprint: Kellie reflects on her journey from writing about "babies and dummies" at Practical Parenting to the helm of the country's most prestigious fashion titles.The Pivot to Not-For-Profit: Why the Australian Fashion Council took the reins from IMG to focus on supporting designers rather than corporate bottom lines.Trade Over Trends: A deep dive into the strategy of getting international buyers back to Australia and why our "lifestyle clothing" is our greatest global export.The Business of the Runway: The reality of show costs, infrastructure, and why some of those "money shots" on the runway never actually make it to the retail floor.Failure as a Credential: Kellie shares why her failed retail venture made her a better leader and more relatable to the designers she now champions.The New AFW DNA: Moving the "fashion walk" to the heart of the city and balancing avant-garde discovery with commercial viability.Join the Conversation:What part of Kellie’s Failure-to-Success story resonated most with your own creative journey? And are you excited about the move to the MCA and the harbour? Is Australian fashion finally getting the global credit it deserves?Let us know in the comments! Fashion Week Dates: May 11-15.
