“Hello Dave,
We’ve not met before. I’m an ad creative too.

‘Remember how seriously we all took it?
Not that we took ourselves seriously or that we didn’t have fun, but we just tried so, so hard to make great work.
It may be chip paper to most people,...
PODCAST: Rick Sittig from 2020-10-13T09:32:50

David Kolbusz. from 2020-04-03T18:07:06
When you start out in your advertising career, Pentel in one hand, Macbook in the other, you seem to be surrounded by good work.
Awards books are choc-a-bloc with it.
As you go on, year by y...
ALAN BROOKING. from 2020-03-31T15:43:04
I'm guessing you're not as familiar with that name as were with others I've posted?

TREVOR BEATTIE. from 2020-01-08T19:27:07
'Recorded any new podcasts lately?'
I get asked this a few times every week.
The askees range from college attendees to retired adman.
As I pick the people I interview, they seem as famous...
MARK DENTON HAS A BOOK TO SELL! from 2019-11-06T19:12:58
On my way to record this interview a weird thought popped into my head.
Weird, because I’ve been reading books on designers for thirty odd years and I’d never spotted it.
Also weird, because ...

Always insightful, but more than that, Richard always ...
Adrian Holmes. from 2019-05-23T11:16:22
One of the nice things about doing these interviews is getting to know people who you’v...
Graham Fink. (Pt. 1) from 2019-05-22T12:43:12
Context.
It’s the word that comes to mind every time I think about writing one of these intros.
What seems familiar today was once considered very left-field, risky or just plain crazy.
Ea...
Nick Gill. from 2019-05-21T13:14:07

Bob Hoffman: The Ad Contrarian. from 2019-05-21T10:52:24
I was just about to write ‘the business I joined 30 years ago is unrecognisable today’.
But then it occurred to me; that’s bullshit.
Take today, either side of writing this I’m working on a g...
Tim Riley. from 2019-05-21T10:06:14
Words.
Boy, they’ve really fallen off their perch.
They used to be so respected, as were the people who knew how to use them.
They could breathe life into cold, dead facts, in their hands ...

Tom McElligott from 2019-05-21T08:48:27
After years of being amazed at what was on the net, I’m now increasingly surprised at what’s not.
Three years ago I was trawling for a particular ad of Tom’s, not only couldn’t I find it I co...
Tony Davidson. from 2019-04-03T18:17:59
It’s weird, I only interview people whose work I really like, but whenever I lay their work out end-to-end, I’m always surprised at how much better it is than I’d remembered.
It could be that th...
Mark Reddy. from 2019-04-03T17:37:56
‘Art Director’ is an unhelpful title.
It has nothing to do with Art and very little to do with directing.
Some think it’s about making stuff look cool, I think it’s about communicating at spe...
Dave Waters. from 2019-04-03T17:32:48
Starting out as a creative is tough.
Most days are divided into two parts, first you...

Richard Foster from 2019-03-06T14:59:39
Read any article on good copywriting and you’ll find the same names appear.
David Abbott and Tony Brignull usually battle for the top two slots, Tim Delaney and John Salmon fight it out for thi...
Gerry Graf. from 2019-02-17T10:41:13
The best ads appear effortless.
As if created accidentally, the result of a chance corridor meeting by people letting off steam on their way to different, grown-up, serious meetings, probably o...
Paul Weiland. from 2019-02-17T10:37:05
Unfortunately I seem to keep writing the same intros to these interviews; ‘Wow! I knew ...
Chris Wilkins from 2019-02-16T12:40:57
‘Chris is one of the few very, very bright people around.’
– CHARLES SAATCHI.
‘On his day he’s a much better writer than I am.’
– DAVE TROTT.
‘He is intelligent, witty and versa...
Dave Hieatt. from 2019-02-16T12:01:07
Since he quit advertising, Dave has had a big effect on it.
First, with Howies.
His mail order catalogues built up more than customer base, they built up a fan base.
They were, and still a...
Carlos Bayala. from 2019-02-16T11:57:57
