Deniz is a senior copywriter in Los Angeles. Before moving to L.A., he was a copywriter in Istanbul, Turkey—where he created the first project in his portfolio, Toys of Hope for UNICEF (above). Nothing better than seeing a fellow copywriter use their powers for good.

Heather is a freelance copywriter/ACD in Los Angeles. Check out her rez and you can’t help but be a little jealous of the agencies she’s worked with and the brands she’s worked on. Sick, sick, sick. MC had a hard time choosing what image to feature in Heather’s post, but if you have the opportunity to get Bradley Cooper’s face up there, that’s what you do. Right? Right.

Since his last post on MC (03.06.11), Louis moved to Euro where he worked on Dos Equis and The Most Interesting Man in the World, then to Grey New York where he works on everything from Pringles to Purolator. On the side, he’s also doing something awesome for the CW community. From Louis: “I do a Google Helpout where anyone (students mostly) who wants me to take a look at their portfolio can set a up a time, video chat with me, and I’ll tell them what I think. It’s completely free.” To check out Louis’s Helpout: Click here. Big ups, Louis!

James is a copywriter/art director/CD in Milwaukee, on the hunt for his next adventure. Notice the CW/AD slash in his title. How many CWs have fantasized about having that slash? “I know my copy is great. It just needs to be designed different. If only …” and then you wake up, still seeing some ghost of the perfect layout in your mind, but not clearly enough to do it yourself, and besides, you don’t really know how to do type in InDesign anyway, even if you do know the kerning button. Dang.

Aleix is a copywriter/CD at Grey London Barcelona. Since his last post on MC more than three years ago (06.18.10, has it been that long?!?!), he’s been very, very busy. That includes a new site and all kinds of new work on it, like the above interactive YouTube video series for SEAT. Good times.

Shawn is a copywriter/CD at Grey in NYC. His site features an animated Shawn pulling portfolio categories out of his head, snoozing and falling out of his chair. Even though MC is a big fan of Cargo, it’s refreshing to see a site made for the writer whose name’s on the door. (Or URL.) Dig it.

Alexandre is a copywriter/CD at Grey Brasil. He’s got a brand new site on Wix (new to MC, far as we know) that’s beautiful. Some awesome new work, too.

Bill is a senior copywriter at EURO RSCG in Chicago, Grey Direct before that. His site starts with tasty campaigns for Brigid’s Bags and Parker Brothers … and then, wham! Check out the old school Rolex spreads. Fellow copywriters, if print is dying, know this: MC will be with you every step of the way. Together, we will march to the grave. Together, we will tap the dirt with our shovels. Together, we will raise our glasses to 36-point centered Palatino, 150 words of body copy and a tag that drives it all home in four. Salute!

Francisco is a copywriter/CD at Leo Burnett in Madrid. There’s all kinds of awesome work up and down his blog, but be sure to watch the first video: “Prodis. Let us do it.” Seeing an agency use their powers for good is so cool. Especially when it’s done like this.

Christian is a copywriter at SK+G in Las Vegas. Almost everything in his book has something to do with Vegas, but what a cool variety: Las Vegas and Bon Appetit, National Finals Rodeo in Vegas, Vegas TAP Project, etc. And don’t miss the last campaign in Print for Borders. Just perfect.

Alberto is a copywriter/artist/director at Atletico International (Grey) in Barcelona. Seriously, this is why I do MC. Alberto’s portfolio is fresh and weird and inspiring. Check out the spot for SEAT Leon, featuring the original narative of Argentinean writer Julio Cortázar. Beautiful.

Ben is a copywriter at Grey NY. Before that, he was an intern at The Village Voice. He graduated from Duke in ’05 and already has a nice reel (Captain Morgan, E*Trade) on his site and a Gold Pencil on his mantel. Except he’s in NYC, so the Gold Pencil is probably on top of his mini-fridge.

Luissandro is a copywriter/CD at Grey Paris. He shares a site with AD/CD Giovanni Settesoldi. Their work makes me want to scratch my career and start over. (In Paris, please.) Magnifique.
