We talk about their North American expansion, the tension between polished production and platform-native content, and why user-generated stories often outperform high-budget ads. Bronwen also shares how Finisterre uses a fictional "brand muse" to guide creative decisions, what they've learned about emotional storytelling in a data-driven world, and where she thinks AI fits (and doesn't) in outdoor marketing.
