Luxembourg
I am a creative brand journalist operating as both the founder and Chief Content Officer of an international firm present in both Luxembourg and London, giving my clients a UK and Continental scope. I develop written, video, photography and fictional content both for brands and for my creative interests. Recent mandates include governments and Fortune 500s.
My original emerging markets consultancy has been upgraded to a Creative Content Agency developing original Brand Journalism, Brand Content and Fiction - including native advertising, sponsored content, copywriting, film and video feed as well as streaming, documentaries and corporate coms. I also develop fiction which is going live on my blog and will be serialised in real-time. Recent mandates include governments, Fortune 500 companies and groundbreaking individuals. Please have a look at our site and get in touch. We'd love to hear from you and can help you with everything from video, writing, photography, animation and voiceover. We deploy your story and get you noticed! Looking forward to hearing from you at www.paulcomrie.com
Incorporated a Luxembourg limited liability company - LUXIND S.ar.l - in August 2009 to faciliate the contracting of my written communications services and communications strategy for individuals, SMEs and institutions seeking to bolster their media presence and foster sales in new markets. Working initially between Luxembourg and India on a word of mouth basis, my consultancy has grown to include clients from most Western European countries and numerous companies based in Bangalore, Delhi and Shanghai. The prevalence of new media and resulting surge of demand for native-English copy throughout the EU means that much of my writing and more importantly, my creative thinking, is routinely sought by leading PR firms in Switzerland, Luxembourg and soon, London, where I have been partially based since April 2013. What was originally a very basic service proposition in 2009 when I started, is grown into a complex roster of clients which increasingly seek me out more for creative than for copy. For this work I have signed with a Luxembourg filmmaker to work on his script from French to English, a former City trader to help unearth and fictionalise his own memoirs of riotous times in Thatcher's London, and all manner of speechwriting, ghostwriting, newsletters, magazine features, blogging and, a new addition, script writing for TV commercials. Passion projects include writing historical fiction, researching historical fiction in world class archives in London, Vienna and Luxembourg and writing theatre reviews - particularly for indie East and South London productions.
researching and writing a brand history for British American Tobacco during the Cold War.
Interned as Cub Reporter for The Hindu newspaper three weeks after completing my Masters in Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia. Upon completing my three month internship I was offered full-time position as Staff Writer and then roving correspondent, with a focus on long-form features on subjects ranging from globalisation to UNESCO restorations of heritage properties along the Coromandel Coast of India. Travelled widely throughout the Asia Pacific region.
