Jeff Johnson

Jeff is a freelance copywriter based in Tampa, FL. What a cool variety of projects on his site for brands you’ve definitely heard of—and some you maybe haven’t. Those include Back Market (above), Oatly, Outdoorsy, Kenvue, OnHub, Vote.org, and something called Google Chrome. (Ha!) His site is divided into Work (start there), Writing, More Ad Stuff, Branding, About, and Contact. When he reached out to MC, Jeff sent a very cool PDF version of his site. (If you’re an agency recruiter, worth asking for.) Good times.

Chris Elzinga

Chris is a freelance copywriter/CD/ACD who has worked with a long list of killer agencies over the years—and has the portfolio to prove it. Since his last post on MC (way back on 07.15.13), he’s added work for Boost Mobile, Google, Virgin Mobile, Oakland A’s, Playstation, Microsoft, and a bunch of other big brands. Be sure not to miss the first project on his site for Glad cherry blossom-scented trash bags, “Le Party.” Ridiculous.

Kyle Harrison

He’s got a whopping 25 projects on his site at the time of this post—including work for Verizon, Peloton, Honda, WhatsApp, AT&T, and more. Don’t miss the first project in his portfolio, an Emmy-winning short film dealing with what we all felt during the pandemic, featuring Sarah Jessica Parker and Sufjan Stevens. So cool.

Nick Rudie

Nick is a freelance copywriter/CD in Minneapolis. Lots of inspiring lifestyle and outdoor projects on his site for brands like Supra Boats, Jack Link’s, CLIF Bar, Moomba Boats, Polaris, Catch Co., and Bauer Hockey (above). Makes MC want to get out there this weekend and do something active. Or, write a campaign about other people getting out there and doing something active. (Hmm.) Dig it!
