If you don’t know…now you know! 2009 Rap Up via Skillz. Always well done.
Best intern recruitment video that I’ve seen 2 date. @firstborn_nyc draws inspiration from Nike’s “Take it 2 the next level” spot & crafts a tale of hard work & family support. Not only a shop w/ style, fb has a ton to offer the right creative soul. So if you’re looking to step up check out the video & give them a shout. If you’re one of the chosen ones I have a feeling that it will be well worth your time.

INSPIRATION FOR A FRIDAY:
This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often.
If you don’t like something, change it. If you don’t like your job, quit. If you dont have enough time, stop watching TV.
If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love.
Stop over analyzing, life is simple. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite.
Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them.
Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once, seize them.
Life is about the people you meet, and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating.
Life is short. Live your dream, and wear your passion.

$40,000 DARPA Scavenger hunt! →
To help celebrate the 40th anniversary of the internet the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has created a competition to analyze network play via todays internet. Interesting idea to explore how scattered groups of people can network together using the internet & solve problems. From a research perspective this is so interesting to me. I’m tempted to join in on the fun, any takers with me?
Props 2 DARPA & the pentagon 4 having a little fun & learning along the way. More details below.
“Mass We Pray” -> game simulator 4 worship. Imagine the Wii version of going 2 Church. GENIUS. Satire @ it’s finest. Props 2 Mike Tuton 4 the recon.
Doubt the conventional -> Create the exceptional. Saw this plate while I was checking out the Taxi NYC ofc this afternoon. Thx 2 Doug Jaeger 4 the tour.
be more concerned w/your character than your rep, b/c your character is what you really are. your rep is merely what others think you are.” -> words 2 live by! Thx PK.

Call 4 Creative Talent @EnergyBBDO -> Jr. AD →
I heard Chi-Town based bbdo is on the hunt 4 a talented + hard working Jr. Art Director. Could really be a quality creative opportunity if you go by some of the work they’ve cranked out the last year or so. From Canadian Club Whiskey 2 Life Savers + Altoids they’ve been able to produce solid work. Dan Fietsam is the current CCO, b4 Dan the joint was run by Marty Orzio. Both have track records 4 top shelf creative. Worth checking out if you ask me. I suggest reaching out 2 Linda Waste. Happy Hunting!
