Technically Creative by KoobrikLabs

Epic Fails in Film, Media, and Advertising – Stories From the Cutting Room Floor

21 May 2025

Description

As we near the end of Season One, we’re doing something different. In this special compilation episode, host Orlando Wood revisits one of the most revealing questions he asks every guest: What’s the biggest f**k-up you’ve ever made — and what did you learn from it? From feature directors to post-production heads, casting giants to brand leaders at Google, this episode is a raw, funny, and unexpectedly moving look at the failures that shaped some of the most respected voices in the creative industries. What starts as a conversation about mistakes becomes something deeper: about instinct, grace, ego, money, burnout, and the terrifying freedom of getting it wrong. Featuring stories from: – Eran Creevy (Welcome to the Punch, The Gentlemen) – Ralph Taylor (Bonhams) – Kate Morrison (Google) – Lee Pavey (Electric Theatre Collective) – John Papsidera & Kim Winther (Oppenheimer, Tenet, Yellowstone) Orlando and guests explore: 🔹 Why failure is often the prerequisite to doing great work 🔹 The cost of ignoring your creative instincts 🔹 How vulnerability and leadership go hand in hand 🔹 The email that almost leaked a major studio film 🔹 The real lessons behind losing half a million — or half a continent Whether you’ve made your first mistake or your fiftieth, this one’s for you.
