cube grenade: lemonade

Send to Kindle

Adver­ti­sing hacks losing their jobs is a sub­ject very dear to my heart (I was one of them, more than once). Adver­ti­sing hacks re-inventing their crash-and-burn careers and tur­ning it into something more inte­res­ting, is also a sub­ject dear to my heart (I’ve done that, too).

Which is why my latest “Cube Gre­nade” goes to Eric Proulx, foun­der of Please Feed The Ani­mals, the blog and sup­port group for out-of-work Adland. He’s also the grand ninja brain­meis­ter behind the docu­men­tary about out-of work adver­ti­sing exe­cu­ti­ves re-inventing their post-advertising lives, “Lemo­nade”.

Besi­des that, I was also in the mood to draw something big, bright and yellow, so it all came together nicely.
