3rd and 4th Day @ the agency
Posted by Claudia on Sun 6 Jul 2008 at 05.55.00 pm
sorry for the delay, i've had a looooooooooong weekend... which is not over yet. The 3rd day at the agency was very intense... That pitch for next week is very hectic for everyone in the agency. I am very glad I got into the agency at this point because I think it is perfect timing to learn from scratch how are things done. On thursday we sat down on a meeting to come up with the concept from 3 pm until 9 pm!!!!!!!!! I mean WOW!!!!!! Bono was expecting me to speak up and contribute with ideas, but it was...

DON'T GET ME STARTED • A PODCAST
Posted by Brendan on Fri 4 Jul 2008 at 08.22.00 pm
Atlanta is known for a few things. A huge airport. Even bigger steaks. And The Creative Circus. So a little while back Ignacio and I braved Hartsfield Jackson International Airport, dined at Kevin Rathburn Steak and dropped into the bustling ad school. While there we toured the school, sat in on a few classes and even offered some words of wisdom to the school population. A full report will be posted shortly as there are some big things happening there. We were also given the honor of participating in the school's podcast. By doing so we were in good company...

Second Day @ the agency.... "Holy Crap"
Posted by Claudia on Thu 3 Jul 2008 at 09.49.00 am
I am very excited to keep writing since apparently there is people that are actually reading my blog :D that makes me happy! :D..... plus I have waaay too many things to post!!! Yesterday was my second day at the agency and I loved it of course.... I don't really like the fact that I come to the agency at 2 pm because I am kind of in the middle of the whole craziness but I have to be at my regular job in the mornings (I have to pay rent somehow). I walked in and I...

My First Day @ the agency!
Posted by Claudia on Tue 1 Jul 2008 at 12.08.00 pm
So..... Yesterday was my first day at the agency and I absolutely fell in love with it.... this is what i want to do for the rest of my life!!!! (not the intern part but the agency part). I came into the office on time and I wasn't sure where to go since I knew my mentor (Bono) was not going to be in there so early in the morning. So i got a chance to meet other people in the agency that i haven't met before.... The girls from the digital dept adopted me for most of the morning since I...

The First Meeting.... OMG!
Posted by Claudia on Tue 24 Jun 2008 at 10.42.00 am
I have to say it was intimidated, come on, face it!!!!!!! sitting in front of a CD who you probably think is a GENIUS and your goal in life is to be like him.. yeah it is a bit intimidating! The agency was all that I expected and more.. I WAS IN LOVE! I could not bring my book because Bono caught me by surprise about the appointment. We sat down, talked for a while... he wanted to know about me.... blah blah blah... It did surprised me that he was so human, i guess i had the wrong idea...

Getting the CD's attention
Posted by Claudia on Tue 24 Jun 2008 at 10.07.00 am
So i have decided to blog my journey trough my upcoming internship with one of the best agencies... AlmaDDB.... following Brendan Watson's advice... here we go.... I am an average advertising student...no wait... actually I am not, my obsession with advertising sets me apart from the whole, seriously... I have been called a stalker by my peers, only because every time i meet someone i have to go behind them and ask for a business cards and let them know my name (in the event that i don't have one of my business cards with me).... That was exactly what happened........

Food for thought
Posted by russ on Fri 20 Jun 2008 at 11.06.00 am
  Here is a quick little rant about restaurants:   Many of the chain restaurants have implemented ‘do it yourself’ appetisers and entrees.   You know exactly what I am talking about…. you go to the Keg, order  Fajitas and get some tortillas, salsa, chicken, cooked vegetables, guacamole and you put everything together to make one fantastic hand-held meal.     I am perfectly ok with that, it is a fun sensory experience that everyone can enjoy.  Over the past couple of weeks however I have been dinning out quite often and it is starting to get a little over done.   Last week I ordered bruschetta and it...
