Well it's been a long and hard graft at JWT here in London. Unfortunately our placement here has come to an end after a long 5 weeks. And...just when we thought it was all over we got told we have an extra couple of weeks to see through some HSBC work the client bought on our last day. Talk about cutting it close.We've been working on a number of brands including, Benadryl, Kellogg's, Crunchy Nut Clusters, Kit Kat, Imodium, Kenco, HSBC and some internal dm projects to promote the company. Some more successful than others, we've now got some credit to our name having three pieces of work put through production, not bad after such a short spell. We've even got some TV ads that are sitting in 'research' - but won't hold our breath on that one.
What have we learnt? A hell of a lot if we're honest. Nothing beats first hand agency experience, at university, they don't teach you how to make sure your noticed, communicate with the account side, the projects, the traffic or how to deal with the client.
We have met some real nice people, made some friends and contacts for the future. A big thank you to Russell, Mike, Fernanda, Adam & Hugh, Miles & Kevin, Simon & Hannah, Graham, Natalie with a special thanks to the guys on the HSBC account as well as Alex & James.
Whilst we push through with production on the last few pieces; over the next couple of weeks, we will be trying to sort out our next ad fix, working on our book and touting it around agencies.

Aw i'm welling up, and Alex is eating your old box of crunchy nut!
You'll be pleased to know your office has been turned back into a general doss area, there's still no briefs knocking about, and i'm sleeping with the receptionist.
Hope they call you back in this week, i've got no one to annoy anymore.
Much love.
Hello mateys,
can you pop back in and fix the printer you jammed please?
