Bridget is a Senior Copywriter at Anson-Stoner in Orlando. Since her last post on MC (09.28.11), she’s got a new gig, a new site, a bunch of new work, and cool new side projects. Like her romantic cards rooted in reality (above). Or her films, Hear Something. Or her FREE Hot Poop sticker, which MC is hoping to acquire very soon. Time for an update!

Dan Jordan

Dan is a copywriter/ACD at Calvary in Chicago. (Second City alert! Once again proving MC’s theory that comedians, drummers and surfers make great copywriters.) Fun stuff up and down his portfolio. One of MC’s faves is Chili’s “Open Letter” (above) reaction to Steve Carell and Paul Rudd’s spoof of LeBron’s famous “I’m going to Miami” ESPN interview. Steve and Paul end up describing/laughing about the letter on Charlie Rose. Genius.

Chris Endecott

Chris is a copywriter at MRM McCann in Frankfurt, Germany. Bunch of cool microsites in his portfolio, including five for Opel. Don’t leave without checking out his crazy Snackball machine for GranataPet. They need to have a contest where you can win one of those things for the backyard, your very own auto dog feeder and fetcher. Just make sure to duck before the tennis ball launches—dangerous!

CWs Wanted: Flint and Steel, NYC

F&S-Colored-Logo

Marc Greengrass, COO of Flint and Steel in NYC, is on the hunt for junior to mid-level copywriters. From Marc: “Who are we? We are a seasoned shop with start-up nerve. Why? We’ve recently bought ourselves back from one of the big agency conglomerates, in an attempt to challenge the definition of what a marketing champion can be. This has given us renewed autonomy and creative freedom. We are democratic, intolerant of mediocrity and creating ideas that range from gaming, Sundance awarded films, category-shifting TV campaigns and more. And we’re doing it for clients including Pepsi, NASCAR, Topps, HBO and others.

Who are you? A young, passionate thinker, in the business for 0-4 years, who wants to experience real satisfaction in their job. A person for whom writing and creativity isn’t just a profession, it’s a calling. A person who wants to leverage all their varied interests to create things that are truly meaningful. You can concept big, think fast, and aggressively contribute to an inspired culture that wants and needs you.”

Yes? Send your link to Marc at: mgreengrass@flintandsteel.com
