Creative, loud mouth and dogger.

Paul Mellor is the breath of fresh air the creative industry dearly needs. As a speaker he delivers a slice of real talk cutting through the bullshit nonsense currently seen in the creative industry. He also talks about himself in the 3rd person… such a silly sausage.

Delivering his ‘Firestarter’ talk, Paul has spoken at events as a keynote, in a panel session or in a Q&A… and if you ask nicely he will create a bespoke talk just for you. Paul can also be found compèring at our Take Fucking Risks events.

Even the BBC let him turn the airwaves blue.

A showreel, that’s not really a showreel

Tired of everyones hot air?

Most events are the same; bland, vanilla, agreeable. Which is a real shame because they should be about debate, disagreement and lighting a fire in someone.

Maybe its because I’m a loud mouth, or maybe it’s because I like going against the grain. Whatever it is, I tend to rock the boat.
