David is a freelance copywriter/CD, previously at McCann, GS&P and Euro RSCG. He was also an Executive Producer at GS&P and Euro, which is an awesome “value add” (sorry). But that’s nothing. Check out his Experience page. What job hasn’t he had?

Alex is a creative at GS&P, formerly a copywriter/CD at Saatchi and Modernista!. His portfolio is just sick. Tons of killer work for Hummer, including the It’s A Little Monster spot, which is one of my faves. Some awesome surprises too, like a print campaign for Herb Chambers Car Dealership.

Sean has moved to W+K NYC from Anomaly. It makes me so happy to write that. Not that he left Anomaly. Anomaly is awesome. But Sean and I went to Oregon together, and there’s a bond between Oregon and W+K that’s deep. Seeing Sean land at Wieden makes everything right in the world. Big congrats, Sean. And for the zillionth time, thanks for Reservoir Dogs and The Afghan Whigs.

Will is a copywriter/ACD at Arnold Boston. He shares a site with art director/ACD partner Rob Kottkamp. I can count on two hands the number of team portfolio sites on MC. (Maybe one hand?) Career creative teams have become rare. Will and Rob’s site shows what we’re missing. Tip ‘o the Hat.

Justin is a copywriter/ACD at Publicis & Hal Riney. He’s got nine projects in his book, and they range from a killer site for Riney (breakthrough nav) to branded content/film Unflinching Triumph, directed by Mark Decena. NOTE: Instead of a rez, Justin links to his LinkedIn profile. Starting to see more of that.

Amanda is a sr copywriter/editorial manager at Old Navy in San Francisco. It takes a special kind of copywriter to go after retail and make it great. Got to love writing. You can tell Amanda does, and writing loves her back.

Justin is a copywriter at R/GA in San Francisco, Cutwater and McCann T.A.G. before that. How about this for a client list: Jeep, Ray-Ban, Nike, Arnette, Oreo, Master Lock, Gibson. Suh-weeet.

Christian is a copywriter at SK+G in Las Vegas. Almost everything in his book has something to do with Vegas, but what a cool variety: Las Vegas and Bon Appetit, National Finals Rodeo in Vegas, Vegas TAP Project, etc. And don’t miss the last campaign in Print for Borders. Just perfect.

Alberto is a copywriter/artist/director at Atletico International (Grey) in Barcelona. Seriously, this is why I do MC. Alberto’s portfolio is fresh and weird and inspiring. Check out the spot for SEAT Leon, featuring the original narative of Argentinean writer Julio Cortázar. Beautiful.

Neel is a copywriter at The Martin Agency in Richmond, Y&R NY before that. As the father of a daughter, an extremely talkative daughter, I looove Neel’s Cellular South spot. (Made coffee shoot out my nose.) His blog, Superuselsess Superpowers, is just ridiculous. I’m so buying the book.

Scott is a copywriter at Carmichael Lynch in Minneapolis, Energy BBDO before that. If you’ve visited MC before, you probably know that I have a thing for remedial video games, having grown up in the Pong Generation. Scott’s made a good one. “Man Luge.”

Mike is a copywriter/ACD at Arnold Boston, Butler Shine and CP+B before that. One of the things I like best about blog portfolio sites is how deep you can go, how much work you can show, without bogging down visitors with a billion clicks. Mike’s done a ton of killer work and his site is way deep. The blog format makes it fun to go exploring. Check out a Volvo piece here, BK there, Truth, Epson, VW, Earthlink, Monster, Puma, Miller Lite …
