I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
As far as I could tell from the quotes in the posts that I linked to, Neil never denies that women can be great creatives. His problem was that they take time off when having babies.
But not all women (or men for that matter), have babies. And not all women stay home with their babies either. But all women are judged as if we will breed and take time off for breeding at some point in our career - while men (equally fertile) are not, even though they too can choose to stay home and take time off. s'all I'm sayin'.
Ok, stop submitting your daft version of the milliondollar page people, its not interesting, it's unoriginal and it's not advertising anymore than spam is and SEO sharks are advertisers. You might think it's a fine line but I don't. This note is just here to let everyone know that no milliondollar-crap will approved again.
Latest submission from a newbie read:
It appears that the idea was not lost on a US senior who is not sick enough to be eligible for disability, but not well enough to work as in younger days
Suprised because you heard nothing of cancelled speaker appearances? Or what are you suprised about?
All I know is that when I first saw the list of speakers I would have loved to attend, I would have really looked forward to seeing, say, Lee & Dan or Brian Clark - but had I bought a ticket then, I would have been terribly dissapointed as most - if not all - of the names that I found interesting vanished from that list of speakers as time went by. Some still haven't vanished despite cancelling their appearance ages ago - like Balder and Jason for example. This schedule is still available to download on their site today.
However, saying that it was disorganised doesn't mean that people can not enjoy themselves at the conferance - even though many might resent buying tickets to se XYZ speakers but instead get ABC speakers - this is why I asked how it turned out in the end. This blogger Carl Walter seems to have enjoyed the conferance just like you - he blogs about it here. Thanks to Björn at site-9 for that link.
I can't tell whats going on in the third execution of the Bud-ad. Can anyone else explain? *squints*... Nope, can't tell what the hell is going on.
Oh, and that straw for yoga from Leo Burnett also won Silver in the cannes awards in the Lions Direct category this summer. (Bigger image there).
How? By never breeding? How do we settle the score - can we collect a 30 year great career at the end of our fertility, or can we cash that prize out in advance? ;))As for that review of the night being removed from room's pages, that is very strange isn't it? Perhaps the author decided against being so frank? Perhaps they were gagged? Who knows. Anyone? Bueller?
Joe Lawson emailed me a reply to the credits/who was the Art Director question:
His name is Noel Ritter and obviously this spot would not have happened without him or our producer Brad Powell. The credit for the look and authenticity of that spot, however, go to six people and six people only (Noel would agree.) I only wish I had mentioned them in the interview. Will Speck and Josh Gordon (Speck/Gordon), the directors, geniuses on every level, and their DP and their production designer, Floyd Albee. Paul Norling, the editor at Filmcore/Santa Monica. The editing is perfect and in keeping with the genre, plus we shot on video so there were hours of footage. Paul's cut added a lot of humor and he found the music, which I think is brilliant. The graphics also played a huge role in the spot and were masterfully done by Claus Hansen at R!ot/Santa Monica.
Every commercial is a team effort, but we had a dream team on this one.
Just spotted that NPR has an article on this campaign now: Article here, audio soon to follow.
ps - yes I'm a very strange girl. Don't knock turtles until you've held a widdle one and felt the widdle turtle-feet! That'll give you turtle-fever! ;)
Found a Quicktime!
Looks like crooks and liars did all the heavy lifting for us here as they have posted a Quicktime version of the same newscast on their website.
