Getting in the mindset for this month’s global theme “Freedom,“ brought to you by Shutterstock, we worked with their talented team to create something around this month’s theme. Pulling from past CreativeMornings talks, we chose quotes that resonated with us for their positive message on creative freedom.
This quote comes from Josh Rose’s CreativeMornings/LosAngeles talk. See the rest of videos over on the Shutterstock Blog. →

“In case you’ve forgotten, every month is a CreativeMornings talk. It’s a gathering of Los Angeles’ creative community and takes place in interesting parts of town and always features interesting people. If you have not been, it is an amazing gathering of locals.
This month is a particularly special talk themed after childhood. Who is speaking? Justin Lyon, a local multi-talented photographer and television person and so, so much more. What has he worked on? Well, a little game-changing show called Yo Gabba Gabba! He’s a Southern California by way of Idaho creative who is truly a homegrown story, from his Art Center start to recent production company opening. To get a bit of a preview of his Friday talk, we spoke with Justin about his work and what to expect in his talk.”
