Subservient graduate has a future
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009
Matthew Guy, a graduate designer, is looking for a job. It is competitive to get a foot into an advertising agency. What do you do?
You could put your portfolio online. Check. You could put a bio up. Check.
Or you could come up with something really creative.
Matthew has put cardboard cut outs of his site on advertising agency doors where he wants to walk through as an employee.
But I really like his Subservient Graduate website where you can go and command him to do your bidding (it is all pre-recorded). Showing a sense of humour, originality, persuades you to spend the time to have a look at his work, which looks good.
Very impressive!
Postscript
I have seen a few comments on the Scamp blog that say that these ideas are not new. Who cares? Little under the sun is. I generally still credit anyone who can use ideas and remould them to their aim effectively.
Still have a look at Subservient Chicken from Burger King, which is live.
