Been a while since i’ve updated. I’ve been pretty busy here working Mon-Fri (sometimes even Saturday) just to meet client deadlines.
Like I mentioned in my previous post, I was originally meant to intern at Publicis Manila but decided to take upon the offer from World Impact Comms as they offered to teach me the ins and outs of advertising not just the creative side.
I’m currently learning the media and accounts side of the agency.
This opportunity has given me a deeper insight into how things work in an ad agency but I gotta say, I still prefer the excitement that the creative side gives you.
Here’s an example project I was part of:

I also did some print ads for this particular client.
One of the key things i’ve learned is the big difference in culture of South East Asia when it comes to Advertising.
Creatively, they’re behind as the advertising is very mainstream and celebrity obsessed.
Though it has its benefits as you get to go to a lot of celebrity-packed events.
In other news, after I finish with this agency on December, I will be looking to work for either McCann Worldwide or Ogilvy & Mather in Manila.
If neither works out, I have Lowe / Publicis to fall back on.
I know this is a rather dry post but i’m a little tired so what the heck…
Just want to say congrats to the LCC team(s) who won the dove competition.
Keep representing

Till’ next time.
Au voi!
