Let’s collaborate….into the future.


By morrel shilenge

Cross fertilization of ideas in different disciplines is the source of growth creatively.

As a creative, one needs to collaborate outside their fields in order to make new discoveries creatively…..

Rent Minds is a playground where Copywriters, Art Directors, Photographers, Multimedia Designers, Strategists, Media Planners, Concept Developers and Illustrators….
collaborate. 
In doing this we are able to execute ideas that are original and thought provoking. Collaboration allows for an idea not to be one sided.


When it comes to collaboration, there’s no hierarchy. Everyone is equal before an idea.

I asked one creative, who owns the production company that produced Jerusalema, how to be a better creative and he had this to say.

Hi Morrel

I am not sure how one can become a better creative. In my case, I just try to do as many creative things as possible, all the time, relentlessly. 

I think the best thing for you is to explore as many creative avenues as possible and then find one that agrees with your talents the most.
Also, get involved with other creative people, artists, musicians, etc, and try to collaborate with them in some way.

Creativity can't be thought, can only be exercised and developed. You got not only to set your mind free, but also MATERIALISE your thoughts. So, if you like photography, for example, then you'll need to create the images in your head and then make them happen through the lens.
