Shiny Suds Commercial
This morning I returned from New York where I was lucky enough to attend my fourth annual Mirren New Business Conference. The content is terrific, the networking is intimate and the speakers are dynamic each and every year. Some of the most inspiring sessions this year were lead by the “big guys” like Alex Bogusky (CP+B), Duane Bray (IDEO) and the ever-empowering Brent Hodgins (Mirren). Michael Goldberg (Zimmerman) put on quite a show but David Droga (Droga5) gets my vote for the most engaging agency presentation.
David’s presentation has a comfortable approachability to it; he was witty, playful and intelligent while maintaining full ownership of the room. What was most interesting about the Droga5 agency’s stories is their quick rise to major client success built on the foundations of taking risk and having the courage to ask clients to push their comfort levels. This commercial for the Method brand is a fun example of Droga5’s work. Granted, it got banned from the air, but we’re talking about it now so that’s still success!
