James is a copywriter at BMF Sydney. His site URL is awoooooga.com and, as you can probably guess, there’s a ton of humor all over it. Lots of personal projects mixed in with ad work, which is cool. Love his stunt for Polycell.

Aaron is a copywriter at Draftfcb in Chicago. His portfolio is half produced work, half student, all fun. Check out Motorola (above) and American Greetings for Draft, and Winnebago and Nair from his U of Texas days. Also, don’t miss his write-up, “Boys, indeed.” Dig it.

Cole is a copywriter at Plan B in Chicago. His portfolio site is all words. (Brilliant.) Instead of thumbnails, you nav through big words. MC loves that. MC is totally geeking out on that, but it’s ok because that’s what CWs do with words. Big ups, Cole.

Rod is a copywriter/CD in Louisville who’s been doing the contract/freelance thing for awhile now. It’s interesting to see how permalancers market themselves through their portfolio sites—the difference between selling your skills to land clients/projects versus landing a job. The work is the work, but how it’s presented is so different.

Howard is a senior CW in Los Angeles. Since his last post on MC (03.28.11) he’s updated from Krop to Cargo and added some killer new work, including pieces for Sony’s Xperia Studio and Americans Elect. About the latter, from Howard: “We tried to use the internet to nominate a president. That one didn’t work out but it was worth a shot because someone’s going to do it eventually.”

G. Andrew is a copywriter/EVP/ECD at Leo Burnett Chicago. As you can probably guess by the title, his site is loaded with killer work—for clients like Altoids, Corona, Samsung, and Starbucks. His stuff for Altoids could be a dynamite portfolio all by itself. Love it love it love it.
