Intro to the Creative Process with Paul. It's, like, an intro to the creative process. With a guy named Paul. Skip to primary content. It’s A Marathon, Not A Sprint. September 30, 2016. I was reading Agency Spy. The other day and saw some cynical bastard note in the comments: “Career in advertising? This is not a career.”. That person sounds like a hack to me, but, because Agency Spy’s comments are anonymous, we’ll never know. He could be amazing, and I’m the hack (probably). Or work at Wieden. Has a gre...

It’s A Marathon, Not A Sprint. September 30, 2016. I was reading Agency Spy. The other day and saw some cynical bastard note in the comments: “Career in advertising? This is not a career.”.

Heineken beer commercial with Neil Patrick Harris
http://ofthesea.com/persuasion/barney-stinson-just-sold-you-on-heineken-heres-how
Barney Stinson just sold you on Heineken… Here’s how. 8230; or Neil Patrick Harris… or Doogie Howser… take your pick. Here’s why this commercial is great:. It pushes the envelope of beer advertising. It uses the technique of frameline magnetism. It employs the serial position effect. A beer commercial shouldn’t be humorous about drinking excessively, and especially about drinking and driving. Other beer ads address the issues of drinking excessively, but it feels slightly disingenuous when they say, R...

Tuesday, February 9, 2010. The husband of a good friend died yesterday morning. Cancer. He put up a long, heroic and painful fight, without complaining and always grateful for the care he received. In his wife’s opinion he did not lose. His fight with cancer but won. His way into heaven. I love that view. In my opinion, there is a special place in heaven for caregivers. Susan B. Sheppard.

http://pomoads.blogspot.com/2008/11/boom-boom-in-routan-room.html
Because almost all advertising today is postmodern, isn't it? What is PoMo Ads? PoMo Ads — short for Postmodern Advertisements — is where I rant about advertising and the media. Some of these rants are directed at my students. If you're not one of them, feel free to ignore those bits. My name is Lilly Anne Buchwitz, and I teach advertising at San Jose State University. Agency websites that are more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Butler, Shine, Stern and Partners. Goodby, Sokverstein and Partners. I swear,...

WordsRight Proofreading / Editing: Pin Money Pickles: the best ad
http://wordsright.blogspot.com/2009/05/pin-money-pickles-best-ad.html
Thursday, May 28, 2009. Pin Money Pickles: the best ad. Virginia entrepreneur Ellen G. Kidd (1852–1932), of Richmond, had a talent for making pickles. From a start of selling some, for “pin money,” from her home at 619 N. Sixth Street, she launched a company—“Pin Money Pickles”—that eventually sold the pickles all over the world. The pickles “sold themselves” and were undoubtedly their own best advertisement. The company continued production until 1950. Susan B. Sheppard. Make your words right! Contact m...

WordsRight Proofreading / Editing: As the language changes
http://wordsright.blogspot.com/2009/05/as-language-changes.html
Monday, May 18, 2009. As the language changes. The English language is always growing, changing, evolving. New words enter from other languages. Are created in specialized fields. Are created from combinations of already existing words. Were originally created as trademarked names of products. Acquire new meanings. Die out. Have meanings become obsolete. Acquire new meanings. And there's always the problem of: what is the correct way to spell [fill-in-the-blank]? Or a prepositional phrase (for example, t...
