One develops habits as a copywriter. For instance, I need to see what words look like in a layout to truly assess them properly. The art directors were right: a block of copy is a visual. It needs to look right. Losing a word or two in order to accommodate the visual is not compromise; it’s part of creating good copy.

Nothing I can think of is as lively and chipper as television in its final throes. If we were all handed death sentences and began dying as happily, healthily, slowly, and painlessly as TV, we wouldn’t fear the process - but welcome it.

Based on a number of industry events, I find it surprising that arguments still rage around data vs creativity or technology vs humanity. It’s not a zero-sum game.

It’s good to see that an ad can still cause an international stir and this modest effort from Audi in China certainly has.
