Nathan Blakely is a high-concept advertising copywriter with a penchant for finding powerful ideas that bleed beyond words into photography, design, film, social media, and ultimately culture.

 

A believer in the persuading power of the stupidly simple, his work often takes universal concepts and twists them into new places that feel disruptive, yet disarming, creating inclusive and thoughtful ways of challenging consumer’s points of view. 

 

His work has taken him from sound booths with Oscar winners, to the remote islands of the Galápagos, writing advertising in all its forms for some of the world’s most iconic brands including Disney, National Geographic, Cadillac, and more. 

 

Originally from Minnesota (with an accent to prove it), Nathan now resides in Orlando, FL where he works as an in-house creative at The Walt Disney Company.
