Riassunto

Adam Thompson creative works span 14 years, serving advertising in London, New York and Auckland. His advertising life began at Watford College where he graduated as team of the year 2003 to Publicis London. Here he spent his early years learning to write ads and fill bins with paper balls. After somehow winning Publicis London's first ever D&AD yellow pencil, his next stop was BBH London where he was fortunate enough to have ideas killed by Sir John of Advertising. His next move was to help set up a Dentsu London helping win new business and run the placement scheme. He then went freelance for the likes of Glue Isobar and Saint@RKCR Y&R (UK Digital Agency of the Year 2011). Eager to explore some new markets, he travelled first to New Zealand to be Group Head at Saatchi & Saatchi in Auckland. Then across town to DDB NZ, helping them to win NZ Creative Agency of the Year in 2015. His quest for new then took him to New York to be Creative Director across Dr Pepper, Chase Bank and Maserati. Now back home in London, as a Creative Director and Director for clients such as R/GA London and BBC Creative. Adam has won both metal and plastic at many of the major shows, including gold at Kinsale; 1 silver Clio; 2 golds, 9 silvers and 3 bronzes at Spikes Asia; 1 gold, 8 silvers and 9 bronzes at AWARD; 2 Grand Prix and 6 golds at Axis NZ; 2 Mashiesfor best international digital campaign; 1 silver, 5 bronzes and 8 finalists at the Cannes Lions; and 1 in-book, 2 nominations, and 1 yellow pencil at D&AD.
