Staff Stars In Hotel Campaign
Emotional images of staff members photographed by Anne Liebovitz are at the heart of a $4 million print campaign for Peninsula Hotels. AGENCYSACKS, which has a roster of upscale clients, introduced the campaign with an eight page insert in luxury, lifestyle, travel and business magazines. Liebovitz was given free rein to roam the hotels in Asia and America, shooting wherever she wished.

Inspired by a TV Dinner
“This was the only time a client has come to me and said ‘Make it look cheesy,’” says Gabe Goldman, art director at the ad agency General Public. The Jones Soda Co. Holiday Pack includes five purposely terrible sounding flavors such as Green Bean Casserole Soda and Turkey & Gravy Soda. General Public’s Goldman, along with designer Jared Strain, found inspiration from tv dinners. The packs were sold out within four hours and the package design attracted attention from no less than ABC’s “Regis & Kelly” and ESPN’s Sportscenter.

Shoe Collateral Fits
Clean and sophisticated marketing collateral is a nice fit for Adamo London’s upscale shoes. Especially comfortable: pull out style cards for each shoe and polish color. Chen Design Associates developed the new identity, branding and brochure, with Josh Chen serving as art director, Max Spector and Jennifer Tolo as designers, and Tolo doubling as copywriter. Lifestyle photography by Karl Hedner, product photography by Jessica Robinson.

Posters Speak
Speak Up, an online forum for graphic designers, recently challenged visitors to produce posters utilizing content found on the site. The four winners: “Bobsled” by Spencer Fruhling (chosen by online vote); Tristan Benedict-Hall’s “Squiggles” (chosen by judge Art Chantry); Jeff Gill’s “Industrial” (chosen by Ellen Lupton); and Bernie Roessler’s “Emoticons” (chosen by James Victore). Limited, numbered, silkscreened editions are available for sale by Speak Up and by Veer, a supporter of the site and the competition. Contact: www.underconsideration.com/poster or veer.com
