John Hegarty and Mark Tutssel both gave very good speeches this year. I also enjoyed a few of the others. The design guy was good too.
What Hegarty covered has been said by so many people before, he just used different words. It’s not his fault. There is no advanced theory for advertising. Whether you’re starting out or 20 years in the biz, the same rules apply.
It does 1.54. But isn’t it lovely to hear it coming from John Hegarty.
Very enjoyable presentation.
