AAF Dallas will be hosting a panel of senior-level network executives who will discuss the state of the cable industry, including such topics as:<br /><br />-the continued growth in ratings<br />-the innovation behind spin-off launches<br />-the growth of non-fiction programming<br />-emerging platforms<br />-rollout of addressable TV<br /><br />Our distinguished panel will include:<br />• Mel Berning, EVP of National Ad Sales – A&E Television Networks<br />• (speaker to be confirmed) - AMC<br />• (speaker to be confirmed) – Discovery Networks<br />• Bruce Lefkowitz, EVP of Ad Sales – National Geographic Channel/Fox Cable Networks<br />• Jon Steinlauf, SVP of Ad Sales – Scripps Networks<br /><br />Moderating the discussion is Sean Cunningham, President and CEO of the Cabletelevision Advertising Bureau.<br /><br /><strong>WHEN: Tuesday, December 14, 2010 11:30am – 1:30pm<br /><br />WHERE: Doubletree Hotel – Campbell Center, 8250 N.

The idea comes first. Will it catch attention? Will it sell the product? Is it relevant? Is it engaging? Does it connect on an emotional level or hit you on the funny bone? Would the client buy off on it? Is it a viable option to do something like this? Does it cut through the clutter? Is it original, fresh, different or unexpected? Is it memorable? Will people talk about it? Does it have legs? Is it compelling? Less is more. Keep it simple.<br /><br />2. Must have killer visual and design skills. Typography. Textures. Layout.<br /><br />3. Flawless execution. Pay attention to ALL the details. That’s what art directors do. Flow. One overall presentation. Brand yourself.<br /><br />4. Minimum 15 samples – maximum 30. All must be great. Most of your samples are in a campaign format – at least three or four campaigns. Catchy, compelling or clever headlines, taglines and body copy. Tell a story.<br /><br />5. Demonstrate 360˚ thinking. New media (web, mobile, social media), outdoor, promotions, guerilla/non-traditional, in-store, packaging, field marketing, stickers, stencils, etc.<br /><br />6. Website with downloadable PDF of your portfolio and resume. This can be your own website or one of the portfolio websites, (http://www.behance.com/, http://www.krop.com/ or http://carbonmade.com/) <br />but you really need to be able to send out a link of your work. This is by far the best and easiest way to get your work seen.<br /><br />The site MUST be easy to navigate. Not slow to load. Ads not too small. Be able to enlarge ads or be able to read the copy.<br /><br />Make sure your name, discipline and contact information is on your portfolio, resume and cover letter. Always put your website, a phone number and an email address on all of your documents.<br /><br />Make sure to state your discipline front and center on your resume, cover letter and portfolio. John Smith. Art Director. Joe Blow. Copywriter. Jane Doe. Graphic Designer. <br /><br />Label your attachments or downloadable files with your name and what the document/file contains. (jsmith_portfolio, jsmith_samples, jsmith_book, jsmith_resume, jsmith_cover_ltr).<br /><br />7. Have a hard copy/physical copy of your portfolio for your interview. I prefer to see portfolios in a book format (11”x17” or 12”x18”). No presentation boards. No plastic sleeves. I don’t like plastic-sleeved portfolios. In fact, I have an extreme aversion to them. They reflect the light and make it hard to see the work. I would much rather see a handmade portfolio that reflects the candidate’s personality.<br /><br />8. Have a leave-behind/mini book for interviews. The leave-behind should not be bigger than 8.5”x11”, but it certainly could be smaller, as long as you can still read the copy with ease. I don’t like CDs, but that is my personal opinion. Why would you even need one if your work is on the web? It’s so much easier for someone to click a link than to open the CD, put it in the computer, wait for it to load and then open it. <br /><br />9. Resume/Cover Letter. Does it make me want to meet you to find out more about you because you are so interesting and cool? Or is it just the “blah, blah, blah” same old boring form-letter-resume that you copied off the Internet that I’ve already seen a million times? <br /><br />I like and expect to see some elements of design incorporated into the resume. Don’t go too crazy with your resume design. It still needs to be professional. You don’t want to get noticed for your garish, over-the-top, unprofessional design. Less is more. Keep it simple.<br /><br />Have several hard copies of your resume for the interview. Your cover letter and/or email letter should be engaging and intriguing. Not a form letter. Not a long letter; it should be a short, sweet and a to-the-point letter that comes across in a compelling way.<br /><br />10. Presentation Skills. You must have them. Could we put you in front of our multi-million-dollar client so you can sell your killer idea to them?<br /><br />11. Personality. Would this person fit in with the overall agency culture and the specific group that is hiring?<br /> <br />TracyLocke has a subsidiary called <a href="http://n-genstudios.com/">N-GEN Studios </a>, N-GEN employs production artists, illustrators and retouchers. If your strengths are in these areas, you should definitely look further into N-GEN. <br /> <br />If your portfolio meets the requirements here and if you feel like you can adapt and be a key contributor, feel free to apply to TracyLocke through their “Careers West” page on their website, <a href="http://www.tracylocke.com">www.tracylocke.com</a>.

We're kicking off the 2010–2011 season with Richards Group founder, and national advertising legend Stan Richards.<br /><br />Stan founded The Richards Group as a freelance practice after graduating from Pratt Institute in New York. Over the next 20 years, it became one of the nation’s premier creative resources. In 1976, it became a full-service advertising agency.Stan’s work has received awards in virtually every major competition in the world. In 1976, Stan was chosen by the Dallas Society of Visual Communications as “the single individual who, over his career, has made the most significant contribution to the advancement of creative standards in the Southwestern United States.”In 1981, 1983, and 1984, Stan was named by Adweek to the Southwest Creative All-Stars Hall of Fame. In 1985, Stan was honored by Pratt Institute as a Distinguished Alumnus. In 1986, he was honored with an Advertising Age cover story. Also in 1986, Adweek named him Executive of the Year, and he was included in The Wall Street Journal’s “Giants of Our Time.” In 1988, the firm was named Agency of the Year by Adweek. Again in 1990 and 1994. And once more in 2002. In 1995, Stan was named an Entrepreneur of the Year by Inc. magazine.<br /><br />The University of Texas named him the 1996 recipient of its Reddick Award for leadership in communication. Previous honorees include Walter Cronkite, Ted Turner, and Bill Moyers. More recently, Southern Methodist University announced the Stan Richards Creative Chair.Also in 1996, Stan received the AIGA Gold Medal, the award for career achievement in design. In 1997, Graphis magazine named The Richards Group one of the 10 best agencies in the world, and the American Association of Advertising Agencies honored the firm with its A+ Award, given annually to America’s best agency. In 2007, Graphic Design USA named the firm one of America’s six most influential agencies.<br /><br />In 1999, Stan received the highest honor available to a creative with his election to the Art Directors Hall of Fame, joining such luminaries as Walt Disney, Norman Rockwell, and Andy Warhol. Apart from business, Stan’s interests include skiing in Utah and fly-fishing the backwaters of Laguna Madre. He is an avid runner, having logged 40,000 miles.<br /><br />In addition, Stan serves, or has served, on many boards: The Salvation Army, Episcopal School of Dallas, YMCA, Cooper Aerobics Enterprises, Dallas Symphony Association, United Way, the Creative Committee of the AAAA, Pratt Institute Board of Trustees, and the Mayo Clinic Center for Innovation. Stan and Betty have been married 53 years and have two sons. Grant is a creative director at his own agency in San Francisco, and Brad is a clinical psychologist.WELCOMEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09120784159203105716noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686224205112665934.post-50599365763028581582010-08-10T08:33:00.000-07:002010-08-10T08:39:57.530-07:00Geek Meet Event:Summer is practically over and I'm sad to see it go.
