Marcelo Pollara

Posted on 04/04/2012 by Siciliano

Marcelo is a copywriter at Euro RSCG 4D in São Paulo, Brazil. So fun to see the cool work coming out of São Paulo for brands that, in the States, are pretty straight. Check out Vanish, Finish, Veet and Trident. Are Brazilians just cooler than Americans? What a ridiculous question.

Chris Hill

Posted on 03/30/2012 by Siciliano

Chris is a new copywriter at Solve in Minneapolis. MC had the pleasure of having Chris in a class at Brainco (back when MC was in Minneapolis), and not only is he one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet, he’s also something like 6’8″. Or maybe it just seemed like it. Anyway, congrats on the new gig, Mr. Hill. Well done.

Brian Button

Posted on 03/22/2012 by Siciliano

Brian is a writer at AKQA in San Francisco. You know what’s fun? Clicking through someone’s portfolio, and you see they’ve got a big Tony Stewart TV spot on there, one of TBS’ Funniest Commercials of 2010. That’s first. Then, you skip down to what’s last, in the Other Stuff section, and you find a headshot of Brian on socks and tighty whities, proudly gifted to and displayed by his family at holiday time. You just. I mean. You can’t beat that.

Gotta say, if you’re going to pick a category to go after, cars is a good one. Andrew’s site has a page titled Super Bowl TV, and he’s got four spots up there. Nice.

Alexandre is a Brazilian copywriter working at digital agency Sinc in São Paulo. Don’t miss his integrated campaign for Par Perfeito, featuring parades of single people. That might not work so well here in the States. But in Brazil, from the looks of the video, oh yeah.

Posted on 01/26/2012 by Siciliano

Ross is a junior copywriter at R/GA in NYC. One of MC’s fave things about portfolio sites is checking out what people did before they became copywriters. What lead them to a life of copywriting? For example, between May and July of 2006, Ross was a professional Ghost Hunter for Supernatural Occurrence Studies in Chicago. It’s like, duh. How else are you going to follow that up?

Michael Skarbek

Posted on 01/24/2012 by Siciliano

Michael is a senior copywriter at AJF Partnership in Melbourne, Australia. So cool to see portfolios from around the globe. So cool to compare humor and tone. To MC, the States and Australia aren’t too far apart, probably even closer than the States and the UK. Interesting.
