G. Andrew is a copywriter/EVP/ECD at Leo Burnett Chicago. As you can probably guess by the title, his site is loaded with killer work—for clients like Altoids, Corona, Samsung, and Starbucks. His stuff for Altoids could be a dynamite portfolio all by itself. Love it love it love it.

Anne is a writer/ACD in Chicago. Her site features a ton of big, national brands for agencies like Leo Burnett and Y&R. Fun to see what she’s done with them. For example, the above bumper cars spot for Always. In which the ride is a giant, um, and the bumper cars represent, uh …

Mike is a VP/ACD/Copywriter at Leo Burnett Chicago. He’s got a redesigned site for a portfolio so good it’s scary. (Sorry. Halloween. It’s allowed.) The writing is flat-out amazing. MC recommends clicking through Categories: Print. Or, just go for it and click Categories: All Work. So much awesomeness.

Don’t miss Mercedes Future Cell, where he turns old cars into an artificial reef. Amazing job putting the video together. Wow.

Will is a copywriter/CD at Kirshenbaum in New York. So much killer work in his book, including a ton of stuff for BMW. His site is Cargo, and is broken out into six categories: Latest Work, Branded Content, Web, TV, Print/OOH, and Case Studies. Interesting, because you can view the work by media (old school) or by case study/campaign (new school) or just check out the latest. All in six links. Very cool.

Dan is a senior copywriter at Leo Burnett Chicago. If you ever want to know anything about Kellogg’s Raisin Bran Crunch, Dan is your guy. Check out his print campaign for Econo Lodge. One of the best things a writer can do for a brand is help it be honestly self-depricating. Nice.

Michael is an American copywriter, raised in Minnesota, schooled in Reno, now freelancing in Portugal, but most of the work on his site was done in Warsaw in a language Michael can barely speak. What does that look like? Here’s your chance to find out.

David is a copywriter in NYC. Tons of work for some serious brands on his site. Check out Digital/360 for three case studies, including a cool one about updating the Vlasic Stork. Love seeing the progression of the character from old to new. Love it when creatives take the time to demo creative dev like that. Nice.

Chiyong is a senior copywriter at JWT NY, formerly at Ogilvy & Mather and Leo Burnett. That’s a rez right off Mad Men, but Chiyong’s work is fresh as fish. (Fresh as fish?) Bing, Yahoo!, IBM, awesome.

Put it all together, just awesome.

Francisco is a copywriter/CD at Leo Burnett in Madrid. There’s all kinds of awesome work up and down his blog, but be sure to watch the first video: “Prodis. Let us do it.” Seeing an agency use their powers for good is so cool. Especially when it’s done like this.

Luis is a copywriter/CD at Leo Burnett in Mexico City, Ogilvy and Lowe before that. This is such an interesting portfolio for those of us in the states.

Amy is a copywriter/ACD at Hoffman York in Chicago after doing time at Leo Burnett, Cramer-Krasselt and Arnold. She wrote a spot for the Broan Ultra Silent Fan that I’ve seen about a zillion times (yes, I watch HGTV), and there’s a moment at the end that cracks me up. In the version on her site, they let that moment play out. Fun.

Alexandre is a copywriter at Leo Burnett São Paulo, Y&R and Euro before that. His site is one long blog page and there’s a bunch of video right at the top, so it takes about 10-15 seconds to load. Much of the work is in Portuguese, but even if you don’t speak it, you won’t care once you get into his book. Big ideas translate in any language.
