Carly Heaton - Creating a Global Netflix Hit, Making Heartbreak High and How to Pull Ideas from The Zeitgeist
Description
In this episode of Creativity Unpacked I'm speaking with Carly Heaton, the Executive Producer of the award winning Netflix show Heartbreak High and Head of Scripted at Fremantle Australia.
Carly and I met about a decade ago when she brought me into Foxtel to train her TV Promos team in creative thinking. One of the things that really struck me about Carly was her leadership style. Still to this day I have never met a leader who empowered, inspired and championed creativity in her team the way that she did.
Carly is a creative powerhouse in her own right and in this episode we'll unpack her creative process and how she pulls her best ideas from the zeitgeist for the TV shows she makes.
She also tells some pretty crazy stories about the remaking of Heartbreak High and a behind the scenes look at what it really takes to pull off creating a global Netflix hit.
You can find Carly Heaton on LinkedIn.
