Juniors, meet Kieran Antill. Originally hailing from Sydney - Kieran is a Creative Director at Leo Burnett in NYC.

Coming up with the ideas is only one part of what we do. Selling, presenting and most importantly - winning business is the other. But that's the shit they just don't teach you in class. So we decided it was time we learnt a thing or two about it and chatted to Andrew Foote - founding partner and creative director at AJF Partnership. He knows a thing or two about hand shakers - he started AJF from scratch with two other lads (who, weirdly enough, all have the same initials) almost 7 years ... Read More! »

Tony. He hangs out with rock stars, wins a shit load of awards, and I'm sure gets mocked for being a little bit 'Special'. Ha! Oh, we're so clever. A talented Art Director by trade, Tony is the ECD of one of NZ's top ad agencies, and is kicking goals left right and center in the creative scene -- the world over. We don't quite know where he fitted in a beer or three with us in the midst of all that, but we managed to ask him a few questions while we could. Junior: Where did it all begin, ... Read More! »

Chances are you've done AWARD School if you're working, or wanting work in an advertising agency in Australia or NZ. For those of you not in the know -- AWARD School isn't a place that you end up learning how to craft trophies and useless dust collecting items to hang in your agency reception. It's an industry-led 16 week part-time crash course in ideas -- figuring out how to make the shiz that wins the awards in the first place. Usually the cream of the crop, i.e the top ten, land ...
