About Us

Central Oversight. CONSISTENT
CREATIVE
QUALITY.

(Lean by design. Built to scale.)

Through our talent network The Creation Population®, we connect brands and agencies with exceptional content creators.

We bring the right people together for each brief - whether that’s design, CGI, film, animation or emerging production tools.

Our role is to provide clear oversight from concept through to delivery, ensuring projects stay focused, efficient and creatively strong.

That means less friction, less waste, and better outcomes for the work.

About Us

meet OUR founders.

Tell us a little about your role within People One Fifty®.

I look after clients and artists. I put teams together to deliver amazing content. I do the numbers making sure it’s a win for the clients, the artists and People One Fifty®. I find new artists and clients that fit with our culture and values. I work strategically, always making sure I understand the bigger picture and also the micro details.

Prior to People One Fifty®.

I was lucky enough to complete the first multimedia design degree in the country. The course involved modules in Creative Thinking, Film Making and Photography, 3D Modelling, Video Editing, and Interactive Design. Amazingly this is pretty much what I do today. I’ve worked in the agency world for nearly 30 years and have seen it all, the good, the bad and the ugly.

Quick-Fire Five.

1. Biggest influence, professionally or personally?

Michael Fisher (my first Boss), he taught me about work ethic, creativity/design and in effect how the creative industry works.

2. Best piece of advice you have ever been given?

Do as Shelley says (she’s always right). Annoyingly this is usually very true.

3. Where are you happiest?

On a beach on a hot sunny day.

4. What’s your favourite catchphrase?

Just do it.

5. Tell us something we don’t know about you – work or personal?

I designed my first record cover at 18 as a graphic designer on work placement. I took my Mum to HMV to buy a copy which I still have today!

6. Bonus facts?

Shelley talks more than I do (!) and drives a Nissan Figaro (the car in the banner above, but black). We had a cat, Cowboy, who is sadly no longer with us. However, keeping his legacy very much alive is his feisty and friendly brother Indian (pictured)!

Shelley SCOTHORNE

Co-Founder & COO

Tell us a little about your role within People One Fifty®.

I ensure everything we do benefits our people - our artists, clients, and team. My responsibilities span designing and implementing business processes, to fostering continuous improvement. This ensures delivering outstanding creative content, realising our operating model's full potential and passing on the benefits. I also support Dan and the team in client and artist care.

Prior to People One Fifty®.

During my Fine Art studies, I caught the marketing bug early on, learning how to blend strategic intent with a creative lens. I’m extremely grateful for my diverse career which includes roles in private and public sectors, agency and client-side. With all focussed on achieving sustainable outcomes, and crucially culminating into where we are today, and the creation of People One Fifty®!

Quick-Fire Five.

1. Biggest influence, professionally or personally?

My late parents’ brilliant wit, kindness, knowledge, laughter, and zest for life inspire me. Professionally, my dad a respected artist and marketer. Ted, my first boss, also stands out - showing how powerful belief and encouragement in others can be.

2. Best piece of advice you have ever been given?

From my dad to a 15-year-old me weathering a tough time in school: 'Always look for the good in people' advice that has stuck with me and forms the foundation for how I approach life and work - putting people front and centre.

3. Where are you happiest?

Honestly, my happy place is in the thick of delivery, collaborating with brilliant artists, clients, and our team. Creating a space for growth, creating awesome content and for people to excel and enjoy the process. It’s a buzz like no other - although jumping into the ice-cold English Channel for the Boxing Day dip gets a close second!

4. What’s your favourite catchphrase

‘There is no such thing as failure, just key learnings.’

5. Tell us something we don’t know about you – work or personal?

With 15 years of experience in healthcare, including 11 specifically within the NHS, I’m honoured that we can offer and unlock access to specialist content creation and production services for organisations within these sectors - services typically historically reserved for the B2C market.

During my time at NHS Supply Chain and in collaboration with The Royal College of Nursing and The Clinical Procurement Specialist Network, I invented, piloted and launched the National NHS Traffic Light Support System (TLSS) - still one of the proudest moments of my entire career!
