Dazed Media is a digital media company that targets the creative community - in other words, those looking to carve out a career in cut-throat creative fields like fashion, graphic design, photography and yes, also journalism.
Think back to your rookie days in news and you will remember what it’s like trying to establish yourself, apply for jobs, pitch for projects, go freelance, or even start up your own company. But the other commonality across these fields is the need for solidarity with your peers and advice from the pros.
In this week's podcast, we speak to digital director Harry Slater and creative director Jack Sunnucks, who explain how their products and services are made with these needs in mind.
There is Dazed Club, its membership of 12,000 creatives, as well as its new inspiring livestream series, How I Became, its AI-powered Dazed Archive and Dazed 100, its own take on the Fortune 500 list.
