We have entered a time where juniors without jobs are now creative martyrs providing electronically-earned philosophy for the next batch of juniors.<BR/><BR/>It’s like being stuck in a Paris Hilton brown circle. Shit’s coming out. Cocks are coming in. And people starting the industry are lathering up in this crappola.<BR/><BR/>Get a job then start dealing out the advice.<BR/><BR/>Girls. I just had a gander at your online folio. Know I now you didn’t ask for advice, but if you put it out there….<BR/><BR/>GAP – is a gap with a price. It’s not really an idea. If it means GAP is so popular it’s gone this is a) a pun b) not at all true (and if it’s not true it should at least be entertaining). A campaign for GAP should invigorate it as a brand. Get it back to how ‘cool’ it was in the 90s.<BR/><BR/>Shockwaves – feels very familiar and first-thoughtish “products tame your mad hair – tame it’s wildness…” It’s executional, without emotional truth. Looks interesting though, in a hair ad kind of way.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Blood – If only giving blood was that easy(?)…not very understandable. Showing a made-up negative visual. It isn’t making me want to give blood. Tell me how easy it is if that’s what you want to do. Or how do you get me from being selfish and keeping it to myself? No truth again.<BR/><BR/>Elastoplast – Dave Trott (I think it was him) did this in the 70’s/80’s.<BR/><BR/>VISA – A credit card is good in an emergency. SHOCK! If you want to do a credit card for your book at the moment you have to consider we are in the middle of a credit crunch. And it just seems similar to ‘For everything else there’s Mastercard’…the shit you can’t control.<BR/><BR/>Hob Nobs – looks similar to the biscuit campaign A&E did recently (not your fault) and that wasn’t great. Does have a truth but it’s too obvious a truth (i.e. mostly everyone given that brief would come up with the Peter Kay angle) and it personifies something which will mark you out as a student straightaway.<BR/><BR/>Mercedes Benz – seems conflicted between strategy and headlines. Blah blah since 19 blah blah is so overused as an endline I would scrap it. The headline about Mercedes Benz being hard to handle but worth the effort sounds like a wrestle with a fucking Lion. Not what you want from an elegant, £80,000 car.<BR/><BR/>Liger xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35498698.post-16475416473123812232008-08-06T07:16:00.000-06:002008-08-06T07:16:00.000-06:00Concentrating on your book is certainly a good thi...Concentrating on your book is certainly a good thing, but in the same breath just because you may not have had much agency experience doesn't mean you can't objectively comment on work/ads...<BR/><BR/>Ads are aimed at Jo Public, so these girls are in the same situation as those we generally produce ads for.<BR/><BR/>I'd say comment all you like on work, it'll help you understand the process better when you debate your views.

You find inspiration everywhere and I also believe theres no set way of cracking a brief, I get ideas when I least expect it. Why don't you try emailing them? Im sure they'd be happy to talk to you if they have time.<BR/><BR/>You should be able to figure it out from the emails on the website.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10246610458379508435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35498698.post-2943811855764906692008-08-05T14:04:00.000-06:002008-08-05T14:04:00.000-06:00sorry that last comment was me, sarah.sorry that last comment was me, sarah.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35498698.post-75646093969872431232008-08-05T14:03:00.000-06:002008-08-05T14:03:00.000-06:00thank you girls.Your own advice is rather good.I d...thank you girls.<BR/>Your own advice is rather good.<BR/>I don't want to look like an ungrateful bitch, but I was actually a bit more interested in what Chris & John had to said to you.
