Welcome to Optimism

Advertising-On-Sea

It’s nice to head out of the big smoke now and again and where could be
nicer for a day trip than University College Falmouth. Darren and I had a
great day airing the Creative Advertising MA course’s Persil campaigns in
public. The work was great and we were pleasantly surprised considering the
course is in it early stages of the year. However the sandwiches were poor,
maybe some crab or smoked mackerel next time chaps? After all you are by the
sea.
We are still getting to grips with the pants that Rose and Charlie made us.
Which loo do we go in? Looking forward to visiting you all soon.
Keep up the excellent work. Loose and Daz

Seeking

Wieden + Kennedy Portland launched a creative recruiting site this week:

http://www.wk.com/seeking/

With only one ad running so far (THEME magazine, which came out 4 days ago), the site’s already generated hundreds of submissions. More ads coming in BITCH, ALARM and GIANT ROBOT.

After people submit their profile, we request a 20 page pdf – which can be as much or as little like a traditional portfolio as they decide to make it.

We hope to get 1000+ pdfs that we narrow down to 50 or so. Then we’ll invite those people in to meet. We may try to link them together in some sort of social network. Maybe we’ll hire a few.

If you’re interested, visit the link above.
