9-1-1
Emergency
Service
OUR 9-1-1 EMERGENCY SERVICES system is highly regarded, efficient and technically advanced. However, many stressed-out callers just start talking and fail to disclose the single most important bit of information that’s needed – where they are located. We created this :30 PSA reminding callers to listen and answer every question, starting with the very first one. “What is the location of your emergency?”
Aromatique has been creating fragrances for the home for more than two decades. As one of the leaders in the industry they decided to kick off this holiday season by running a full page ad in Country Living and House Beautiful magazines.
Known worldwide as the makers of “The Smell of Christmas” product line, we couldn’t resist using this recognizable face as our hero.

BRINKER INTERNATIONAL Restaurants
Brinker International is one of the premier casual dining restaurant companies in the world. Always searching for fresh new ways to present their dining experience, they asked Poppy Sundeen and Les Kerr Creative to team up and developed some new menu concepts for On The Border.
Our directive was to bring more emphasis to the Mexican side of the border and help separate their Grill & Cantina from rest of the Tex-Mex pack.
BARON & BUDD, P.C.
Law Firm
BARON & BUDD goes beyond merely representing its clients in court by working in the political realm and becoming an advocate for those who do not have the resources to protect themselves from corporate misconduct and fraud. This :60 TV spot helped create awareness for not only victims of mesothelioma caused by exposure to asbestos, but the many others who suffer from lung diseases not related to smoking.
Community Coffee was opening more than a dozen new coffee houses in Dallas and Austin. We developed this print ad to run in the local newspapers, university papers and D Magazine.
“Passion” was the obvious theme for a number of reasons: they’ve been fanatics about making coffee for more than 80 years, they’re based in New Orleans, and you have to be really, really passionate to even think about going head to head with Starbucks.

DALLAS MUSEUM OF ART
Art Institution
The DMA organized the first United States Henry Moore retrospective in more than 20 years. Our job was to simply tell people when and where they could see it. Needless to say, we didn’t have to hire an illustrator for this project.

HEINEKEN is a well-made beer, with a patented process that no one else can copy.

FSI
LA MADELEINE asked us to create some materials featuring their crepes, and at the same time help boost their awareness and drive people to the restaurants with a FSI and outdoor campaign. This called for a little appetite appeal with some enticing photography, complimented by a few folksy illustrations, and a simple invitation to join us for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

VALENTINE RADFORD wanted to be known as a hybrid communications agency that could integrate traditional marketing with the power and speed of the Internet. This poster, illustrating the power of convergence, helped launch a new way of thinking for the agency.

Z TEJAS
Restaurants
It may sound like another Tex-Mex restaurant, but Z Tejas is not what you’d expect. The menu includes a combination of ingredients “that takes you from the Gulf coast to the Pacific in a single bite.” Our goal was to make sure the customer doesn’t expect to see a plate of tacos and refried beans when they walk in the door.
