Brett Brown

Truck_B_o

Brett is a freelance/permalance senior copywriter in NYC. He shares a site with AD/creative partner/spouse Krista Brown, who submitted it to MC. All kinds of cool stuff in their portfolio, including work for Acura, Carl’s Jr., Harley, and an Armored Tailgating Vehicle for Union Bank. But, work aside, can we just pause here for a moment and applaud a married freelance/permalance creative team who still likes each other enough to do something nice, like submit their site to a little industry blog that specializes in what the other person does? Love that.

Bernie Watt

Bernie is a copywriter/former punk rocker from Brisbane, Australia, who is about to land in the States with a Green Card/Diversity Visa and will be, well, ready to rock. It’s not often MC features direct mail in a post, but the above piece for Suncorp Insurance is pretty genius. Lots of other good stuff all over Bernie’s site, too. Looking forward to seeing where he lands!

Chad is a copywriter/CD/entrepreneur/performer in Austin. Since his last post on MC (02.10.10), he’s got a ton of new work up on his site, launched like eight new companies, written and performed sketch comedy, done a bunch of voiceover work, and made some awesome silkscreen posters (including “Let’s Have a Meeting about a Meeting” above). MC gets tired just trying to sum it all up in one post. Tired, and inspired. Love it. This is what being a CW/idea factory is all about.
