Think Like A Murder Mystery Writer, presented by Ankur Kalita, Vice President/Senior Creative Director at J. Walter
Thompson in Delhi, India Creative@ADFEST: Friday 22nd March 14.30 – 16.00 – Room Pattaya 6 We all sit on the edge of our seat while watching
murder mysteries. Do they contain a secret formula that could benefit our
industry? Yes, according to copywriter Ankur Kalita, who points out that murder
mystery writers begin with the murder, and go backwards from there. “And that's
a great lesson for us ad folks. We need to start at the end too, to begin
making more of a difference in the lives of the brands we work on,” he says. In
this workshop, you’ll learn how to write stories that are as compelling as
murder mystery bestsellers. Pre-registration is
required. For more information, click here.
