Leo Burnett - Creative Process

Creative Process

His creative process could be summed up in three points:

  1. 'There is an inherent drama in every product. Our No.1 job is to dig for it and capitalize on it.'
  2. 'When you reach for the stars, you may not quite get one, but you won't come up with a handful of mud either.'
  3. 'Steep yourself in your subject, work like hell, and love, honor and obey your hunches.'

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or process:

    “But the creative person is subject to a different, higher law than mere national law. Whoever has to create a work, whoever has to bring about a discovery or deed which will further the cause of all of humanity, no longer has his home in his native land but rather in his work.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “The American, if he has a spark of national feeling, will be humiliated by the very prospect of a foreigner’s visit to Congress—these, for the most part, illiterate hacks whose fancy vests are spotted with gravy, and whose speeches, hypocritical, unctuous, and slovenly, are spotted also with the gravy of political patronage, these persons are a reflection on the democratic process rather than of it; they expose it in its process rather than of it; they expose it in its underwear.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
