About me

Jeremy-Ettinghausen_1.jpeg

I’ve spent 20 years finding new ways of telling new stories in new places to new audiences…

… first at Penguin Books where I spearheaded their transition from traditional print publisher to 21st Century digital media brand, then as Creative Director and Innovation Lead at Bartle Bogle Hegarty and most recently as a Creative Consultant, working with brands, agencies, publishers, startups and blockchain enterprises.

I’ve worked with bestselling authors and blockchain pioneers, the freshest of startups and global market leaders. Along the way I’ve created the world's first wikinovel, a literary ARG, state-of-the-art cinemagraphs, award-winning mobile apps, interactive documentaries and immersive digital storytelling experiences.

I’ve spent two decades executing today’s digital strategies and navigating tomorrow’s digital possibilities and remain passionate about the power of the creativity allied with the scale of the web to drive communication, commerce and experience.
