How we create content | Jon Savage | TEDxCapeTown

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Jon shares his journey into the democratization of content creation - the obstacles, the reality and the realisation that we don't need anyone's permission to make cool sh*t.

Jon Savage is a maker of things. He began as a filmmaker at a young age until his musical career exploded in the form of a globe-trotting rock band called Cassette. He has subsequently been a music producer, a DJ on South Africa's national radio station, the music director of the SA Music Awards, the creator of the 5FM Mashlab phenomenon, a writer for Rolling Stone magazine, a film director and is now the Creative Director of a company called Thread, which focuses on making things awesome.

Jon has genuinely tried and tested various ways to create world-changing things and has mostly failed. On this Tedx stage in Cape Town, Jon takes us on his journey of his rollercoaster attempts to help us all explore the nature of becoming makers of things.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
