Drive welcomes James
Drive Creative Studio would like to officially announce the appointment of our newest team member, James Dudley (aka Jimmy Duds). The eagle-eyed amongst you may recognise him from our recent blog article about our day out kayaking on the Exe. James has just completed a Graphic Communication and Typography degree at Plymouth University with First-Class […]
The Christmas card that never was
This year Drive sent out illustrated Christmas emails to our clients and partners which, aside from being the eco-friendly option, could be seen as a little bit of a cop-out. So we thought we’d let you peek behind the scenes to see the hand-crafted Christmas Card we originally intended to send that never happened… We […]
Simon turns 40!
Yes our very own Simon turned the ripe old age of 40 this month. To celebrate this momentous day we suitably decorated his desk, indulged in party food, cake, beers and hired a Welsh man in a thong to serenade him on video (it’s amazing what some people will do for a fiver). Happy Birthday […]
Kayaking the Exeter Ship Canal – Our big day out
Well, it’s the end of another busy summer for the team at Drive Creative Studio so we decided to treat ourselves to a day out kayaking the stunning Exeter Ship Canal. At 13:15, bang on schedule, Sam arrived from Exe Adventures with five fine one man kayaks and accompanying buoyancy aids and oars. Tom nominated […]

Lessons learned by a Creative Agency Girlboss
Earlier this year I was asked by the Exeter Uni to speak to a group of female students about being a female creative agency owner. As part of Global Entrepreneur’s Week, Thursday the 19th, was named ‘Women Entrepreneur’s Day‘. The brief was to discuss my career history and the lessons I’ve learned on the journey […]
This is how a Devon-based creative company celebrates
On a windy day with Autumn in full swing, the Drive team decided to squeeze in some much needed R&R before it gets far too chilly to leave our cosy studio. Of course, our idea of relaxation is blowing off some steam with a friendly (and not competitive at all) round of Clay pigeon shooting […]
A shiny new creative marketing intern
The office is getting a little more crowded this month as we guide our first office intern through the righteous path of creative design and marketing. Workloads are high and new and exciting opportunities are coming through our doors, so with help from The University of Exeter’s GBP Graduate Scheme, we have recruited a local […]
Drive are two (again!) – Past and present photos
What better way to celebrate Drive Creative Studio hitting the grand old age of two than to relive our infant youth as 2 year olds with some past and present photos. Yes, these photos are real. We did over take a children’s play park, invest in a ridiculous onesie and chop up a farmer’s veg patch. Thank […]
Outdoor brands at Exeter event
Living and working in Devon certainly has its perks, we can’t deny it. Miles of beautiful coastline and beaches, and further inland the rugged wilderness of the moors, countryside and ancient woodland – Devon is a playground for outdoor activities. The team at Drive Creative Studio therefore unsurprisingly love the great outdoors and inherently love […]
