We were lucky to catch up with Francis Wintour recently and have shared our conversation below.

Francis, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

Growing up, I quickly understood the power of film and storytelling. Passing down stories and examining them is inherently human. the stories we tell are the fabric of our culture and who we are. Suppose you can relate to the story of an animated singing lion, who doesn’t want to be king out of shame and guilt and later saves the day. you can relate to anything. I want to do that with my films, poetry, and photographs. Tell a real story that may sound fantastical but in a way, you have lived it or want to.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

Well, I’ve always taken photos and films, writing came a little later cause I’m dyslexic so I never thought I could. Last summer I photographed a couple of big festivals and started from there working on music videos and social media for different clients. I love helping other artists articulate their vision and taking it to the next level visually.

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

i think you have to be very intentional about what you want people to know you for. Recently I decided to rebrand. I stoped posting so much about myself and more about my work. I lost followed and my engagement is fucked up, but it’s an investment and a show of trust in myself. The more professional work I post the more clients reach out. You have to work on your vision and believe in yourself almost in a delusional way.

Can you tell us the story behind how you met your business partner?

It’s very important to have a team that you trust and you are obsessed with. People who can do things you CAnt and are better than you in other things. It’s super important to work with people that you can disagree and fight with and then quickly get the job done.
