Creativity & LearningWho is Ridley Scott in the Agency editorial?
Ridley Scott is a British film director, known for films such as Alien, Blade Runner and Gladiator. The Agency editorial names him once, as R. Scott, in Creative.11: he is one of five directors Thiago Patriota lists when asked where his ideas come from.
In short
Ridley Scott, film director, appears in the Agency editorial in one sentence of Creative.11, the edition in which the author, Thiago Patriota, is the one interviewed. Asked where he found his wealth of ideas, he first speaks of games and then says that cinema and movie directors like D. Fincher, C. Nolan, M. Scorsese, R. Scott and D. Villeneuve "told me so many beautiful stories", so perhaps that is where most of his fiction comes from. The edition writes only R. Scott, read here as Ridley Scott, and mentions no film of his.
