Beth Montague, Executive Producer with over 20 years of experience in creative production working with creative agencies, international brands and artists has gone back to her roots, joining forces with Nicola Doring and Claire Luke at their new creative studio Octopus Inc. The trio are no strangers. In 2001 Beth worked with Nicola and Claire at HSI London as Executive Producer and Head of Music Video, then went on to work with them both at Caviar, Park Village and RANKIN CREATIVE. She has worked on countless global campaigns with brands such as Adidas, AMG, Bourjois, Disney, and Rolls Royce in addition to music videos for Muse, Robbie Williams and Justin Timberlake, to name a few, not to mention countless short films and branded content for global brands.
Here’s what Beth had to say about reuniting with her old colleagues and what she’s most excited about
“I am thrilled to find myself back with Nicola and Claire at my spiritual home of Octopus Inc. From our first day back together it was like we had never been apart. I can’t wait to share what’s next on the horizon for Octopus!”
Nicola said of the move,
“We are a force to be reckoned with. The collective experience that we share allows us to really negotiate the terrain of the changing world of advertising and content in general. We are branching into exciting areas of non-traditional content and our roster reflects that with our Directors being experienced Creative Directors, Photographers, Art Directors and Installation artists. We feel that the final piece of the puzzle has just fallen into place, and are so happy to have Beth back”.
Claire rounded up by saying,
“Octopus Inc is in the process of a really exciting evolution, and it made sense for us to invite Beth back into the fold so we can be fully powered up, to move forward as a team who solidly play to each other's strengths. We are looking forward to achieving great things, as a collective of production muscle that is second to none.”
Corin West of Lemonade Reps Says,
“We are super thrilled for Octopus Inc to be welcoming Beth to the team. Octopus are defined by their fresh unique vibe and it just feels like this is a super charged injection of energy to drive forward with these three incredibly impressive, and experienced women, running a creative studio that offers such great talent and with such a wealth of production experience. It’s really exciting to see.”
