Rethink Advertising Group

Their logo, however simple it may seem, is rather genius in my opinion. Their approach to business, staff and how they go about designing personal business cards just blows me away. Researching this Vancouver, BC based advertising group was quite entertaining. But I don’t want to spoil it all for you. You can find out the rest just as I did by checking out their site.

As a suggestion, check out the *student section under the inquires link. It provides some valuable information for people like us whom are a considering a career in advertising.

Also, they have a link to some work done by an intern they hired. Leo Lung is a graduate of the Ontario College of Art. He has some great material, but I think I’ve seen some comparable if not better work from some of my fellow AIP students.

Obe Wan Kenobi of Advertising

Mark Fenske teaches the advertising graduate program at Virginia Commonwealth University. In Ernie Schenck‘s The Fenske Upload, he is regarded as “one of the few guys left in this business who genuinely gets it.” His website features an article titled Snake Venom & How Good Advertising Works -Part 1, I suggest you read it.

Prepare to be awe inspired.
