The mighty David 'DeathSpin' Buonaduidi welcomed us yesterday in his white Karmahouse for a chat about our book. We heard that they were not particularly looking for teams but always keens on seeing them. I was glad that Dave recognized me from back then when I've met him at the Under the Influence talk organized by Iris.The meeting was rather positive as Dave was precise and to the point with his opinions on our work. Stuff like Paperchase and TfL he found nice, but not in the best way. He was more keen on our Greenpeace, Ryanair and the direction J2O was heading. We wanted to see Karmarama for some time now and were happy to finally done so. We left our contacts and entered his freelance radar, a good thing we think. Back to work now. Jai is helping his mum, she's a singer, and has a concert today. She does all the time but rarely it is in London. On my end I decided to look into a bunch of strategies and write a list of new ones. We're getting ready to continue our visits to creatives who wave their arms. Who's next?

That work hard and be nice to people is a rip off. Anthony Burrill est.
I see you took my advice re: last post, but decided not to show the comment!
Good to see you've changed the headline nonetheless. It's better than 'nothing interesting'
I love to play PING PONG! lol.
What's the strategy for your paperchase? I've tried so hard to do it but it's damn hard. Mind if I know? I won't tell anyone.

Why a rip off? Perhaps a homage?
Dave's an absolute beaut. I did a placement there a few years back. We played a lot of table tennis, sat on big rubber balls and generally had a lot of fun.
wicked guys, i know a team there, they say its lots of fun and great to work there. well done for getting out there and putting your book in-front of the noses of these kind of agencies.
whats next?
Karmamramas work is repetive and boring if you look at their site. Don't go there guys. Lazy advertising.
Ping Pong wars - not too uncommon to see table tennis in agencies!
Dave B is advertising's Muhammad Ali. You could learn more from 2 weeks with him than in 2 years working at any of the big name advertising agencies.
Whats the point in talking about your work you had a crit on if no one can actually see it?
Anon 5:25
I would take from that, nothing has changed in their portfolio from their last crit.
Presumably you've seen TFL, paperchase, ryanair and so forth?
