Rewriting Collective Insights: Phil Lord at TEDxCoconutGrove

Phil Lord speaking at TEDxCoconutGrove at Ransom Everglades School in Miami, Florida, about his encounters with "square one" during the writing process. Phil graduated cum laude from Dartmouth College with a degree in Art History.  He co-executive-produced, wrote, and directed MTV's critically-acclaimed animated series Clone High and served as co-executive producer for the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother. He may be best known for co-writing and co-directing the animation feature Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs which earned Golden Globe and Critics Choice nominations for Best Animated Feature and four Annie Award nominations. Recently, Phil co-directed 21 Jump Street and is working on Lego: The Piece of Resistance. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
