Chris Shafer

Chris is a copywriter/CD at TM in Dallas. All kinds of fun projects up and down his site. Don’t miss his Pizza Hut social posts, which are as hilarious as pizza is delicious. (What a killer assignment as a writer, sheesh.) Also check out his “I’ve Only Got 5 Minutes” page, which is a great idea—and probably something more creatives, especially those with tons of projects on their site, should consider. Dig it.

Sarah Weigl

Sarah is a copywriter/CD at McGarrah Jessee in Austin. Since her last post on MC (back on 10.29.14), she’s been busy. Whole bunch of new work up on her site, including videos for SkinnyPop (love the kick-Roomba vid), print for Yeti coolers (killer lines), and “Alexa, Apologize” (above), which is oh so timely at this particular moment. Love it.

Ryan Durr

icet

Ryan is a freelance copywriter/ACD in Richmond, VA (and ready to travel). Since his last post on MC, way back on 05.07.12, he moved from Pereira & O’Dell to Innocean to Martin to freelance—and added a bunch of killer work to his portfolio along the way. Like selling lemonade with Ice-T for Geico (above). Definitely time for an update.

UPDATE: Jordan Dontos

teeth

Jordan is a copywriter/ACD at Slingshot in Dallas. Since his last post on MC (08.05.2010), he’s got a new Cargo site and all kinds of new work up on it. Including a campaign for Warheads, featuring “The Teeth.” MC imagines what it was like being the set designer, getting that call. “So, like, there’s like this giant mouth, and like, two of the teeth are people, Sour Tooth and Sweet Tooth …”

UPDATE: Scott Shalles

Scott is a copywriter/ACD at STIR in Milwaukee. Since his last post on MC (9/21/10), he’s put together a new site with all kinds of new work for clients like Cousin’s Subs, Milwaukee Riverkeeper, and Agnesian Healthcare. Check out his campaign for the Wisconsin State Fair, which includes a video featuring Bacon Boy, a talking pig doll, hunting for a Fair date (woman, not sow).

Sarah Weigl

Sarah is a copywriter at Sanders/Wingo in Austin. (Her site was submitted by Nikki Lott at Integer. High-five, Nikki.) One of the things MC enjoys most, going through a CW’s portfolio, is seeing their personality come through the work. Spend 30 seconds on Sarah’s site, and you see it. Bad-ass. Also, be sure to check out her rad blog Badder Homes & Gardens, with Nikki and Krista Hogg. Awesome.

Ryan Durr

Ryan is a copywriter at Pereira & O’Dell in San Francisco. MC is straight-up jealous of his client list. Skittles, Nike, LEGO, Corona, Juicy Fruit (which has gone a little Skittles), Camelbak, Kiehl’s, wow. Love the work, too. Like Sarah Silverman making out with the Serenading Unicorn (above). Disgusting. And so beautiful.

Max Godsil

Max is a copywriter/CD in Los Angeles. Before going solo he was a CD at TM and Saatchi, and before that he wrote for Vitrorobertson, BBDO and Borders Perrin & Norrander. His site is one long scroll, left to right, and it’s a blast to go through. There’s a ton of great Toyota work, including the genius Unbreakable campaign that won everything. If you haven’t seen the Monster Truck spot, it’s a must.
