A few weeks ago my buddy over at Edelman Europe, David Brain commissioned me to draw a PR-related cartoon for an ad they were running. Though like all commercial illustration gigs, there were a few changes made in the end, I liked my first offering so much I decided to just go ahead and blog it here.
There are some new ideas in there, and some old ones I borrowed from my attic, most notably our friend, the ever-cheerful and optimistic Social Media Specialist. A lot of the ideas were inspired by the interview I did with David back in early November.
Considering how tight the deadline was at the time, the project turned out rather well. I was happy, so was David. Hopefully Richard Edelman was, too. Rock on.
Okay. You just blew my mind.
Brilliant! Love it!
Brilliant!
Make that 2 x minds blown!
That is one information loaded cartoon. Great work! Edelman must be overwhelmed when they saw it.
Amazing. It’s like you drew the inside of my brain 🙂
That’s awesome. I want a poster!
i second the request for a poster. heh. …question: i am curious (just from the point of view of wanting to see inside the design process a little) as to if you had several drafts of this, or created like some small scale ideas first, or just penned it all in one go?
Hugh,
I must admit I finally see the method to your madness. Brilliant is what you are!
Hugh it’s great thanks. Need some more versions for different markets. they should start appearing soon in Europe at least. Very happy other folk seem to like them too.
I have this as my wallpaper now…gets me thinking everytime I switch on my computer and stare in oblivion.. 🙂 esp snippets like culturetech, everything is a WIP.
Good job! 🙂 Keep it up. U just inspired to get back to mindmapping some of my thoughts 🙂
Thanks for this – it’s my wallpaper now, helps me think when Im staring into oblivion..trying to look busy, as usual. Uve also reminded me to pick up mind-mapping…dammit..I used to be so creative back then! Thanks, mister – this was a much needed epiphany! 😉
Brilliant.
Is David taking resumes?
