"Inspiration is the spark that ignites technology. Science fiction can change the world."

 

Marco Spier blends science fiction, advertising and design to bring alternate realities to life. As the co-founder of the Emmy award-winning commercial production company Psyop, Marco reaches millions of people around the world through the power of visual storytelling — a skill he's now bringing to the ocean cause. In his Parley Talk, Marco discusses the power of using the tools and talents we already possess to create awareness and catalyze solutions for the oceans.
