THE ILLUSTRATORS' TREEHOUSE NEWS

During portfolio reviews the other day, I mentioned to some of the students the:
5 Main Themes Most Ad Agencies Fall Into:
   Food
   Drink
   Lifestyle

So, if you want to work for an advertising firm, make sure these themes are represented in your portfolio!

From SCBWI Carolinas: Monthly Newsletter, including the announcement of my upcoming webinar on "Getting Your Pictures Onto the Page"

One of our Ad Agency speakers on Tuesday mentioned Simon Sinek - here are his TED Talks. Another fave of mine is Seth Godin - visit his website and listen to any of his 100+ videos. They're both brilliant and all marketers/advertisers/world-changers should give them a listen.
