Remember when a pristine, perfectly curated grid was the gold standard for brand identity? Matching filters, balanced colour palettes and carefully styled flat lays were seen as proof that a business was professional and trustworthy. A clean feed meant you knew what you were doing.

In its place, content that is imperfect, spontaneous and visibly human is what actually lands. Less showroom, more real life.

In the spirit of Halloween, I’ve been reminiscing about the (very) few horror movies I've mustered the courage to watch in my life - one standout being the 2024 sensation Long Legs.
