Why I love looking sideways | The Copy Canopy
https://thecopycanopy.wordpress.com/2010/02/20/why-i-love-looking-sideways
Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. Why I love looking sideways. February 20, 2010 – 7:53 am. A favourite college professor of mine had told my class about 4 years ago about a book called ‘The Art of Looking Sideways’ by Alan Fletcher. He refused to describe it, and said that it is a book that you have to read, to really grasp what it is about. He said that if we ever came across it in a bookstore, we must buy it immediately. A lady visited Matisse in his studio. Inspecting...

Reality Check | The Copy Canopy

Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. March 2, 2010 – 6:09 pm. As I had mentioned in an earlier post, The Little Ones. Even, and tore each of them apart with admirable aplomb. I’m sure she has her reasons, and I’m sure she sold a whole lot of copies, but even as I was reading those pages two years ago, I felt defensive. I was an eager 20 year old, who had never worked in the industry, and I realized was. There you have it. Damned if you do. Damned if you don’t. Over my dead copy.

The coolest baby in town | The Copy Canopy

Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. The coolest baby in town. March 20, 2010 – 12:32 pm. I am a huge fan of the E*trade baby commercials. I have been ever since I saw one of them up on Grey Worldwide’s lovely website. And, no, it isn’t just because of the cute baby. Here’s how it probably sounded on paper:. So we have this baby, right? And the baby TALKS! In a grown up voice! And they all talk in grown-up voices. Bada bing! Laquo; A dollop of inspiration. Enter your comment here.

Opinions | The Copy Canopy

Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. March 7, 2010 – 6:38 pm. It wouldn’t be so bad if opinions were stated, and then left there. People could then choose to use it to improve their work if they saw fit, or politely ignore it and proceed along smoothly. But we all know that that is never the case. An opinion is like the One Ring from JRR Tolkien’s wonderful ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy. Just like the One Ring. To be found, an opinion. Opinions can range from snotty (. BOSS: No, t...

There’s a good chance that they will be taken in by a commercial with their favourite idol (what else explains the otherwise baffling phenomenon that is Hannah Montana? Or one that tells them to go buy something because your best friend probably already has it! Why I love looking sideways. By Reality Check « The Copy Canopy. On 02 Mar 2010 at 6:09 pm. You are...

Twittering | The Copy Canopy
https://thecopycanopy.wordpress.com/2010/01/24/twittering
Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. January 24, 2010 – 5:11 am. I joined Twitter last week. Despite telling myself that I never would. That it was pointless. That it made no sense because WHY would you want an entire site made of status messages? And WHY would anyone want to read what you have to say? But I want to see how long I can maintain an anonymous blog. Then maybe I can get my movie deal. But that’s another story. Stuart ain’t so little any more, huh? Over my dead copy.

On copywriters | The Copy Canopy
https://thecopycanopy.wordpress.com/2010/04/12/on-copywriters
Advertising, writing and the occasional chocolate-chip cookie. April 12, 2010 – 10:16 am. Copywriters are a different breed. We don’t have to attend art school, business school, or give a bunch of exams with acronyms that sound like various animals/planets/political organizations. We. Of course. And if we did, it would still help us a great deal. Of course I can write! I mean, it’s English, right? I speak it all the time! So why can’t I. But it’s just a line! How long can that take to come up with? Copyw...
