About me

Alright. The name's Marc - that British ginger guy who studied in Mumbai for a year because he was tired of a normal life. He also gallivanted around New York, interning at JWT and TBWA\Chiat\Day. He's now going to switch to the first person because he loves mixing it up a bit. I also worked at McCann London for half a year as a creative intern, which is where I am now (the city, not the agency). Since graduating from Miami Ad School in September 2016, I've been a freelance copywriter for a number of good eggs, including VaynerMedia, Selfridges, iCetana, Royal Society for Blind Children and Magic of India. I am now currently working with my new Brazilian art director on a 2nd portfolio, in the hopes that we will be hired together as junior creatives. In the meantime, please do check out my personal portfolio. If you've got this far, congratulations! Contact me for your free pint.

Projects

• Netflix - Setting the MoodThe term 'Netflix & Chill' is dead, but it's still happening with couples. Netflix aims to get lovebirds more in the mood at the exact moment they get carried away with each other, because no one wants to get it on to, oh lets say, the sewage tunnel scene in The Shawshank Redemption...
• Penguin - Experience a ClassicVintage novels are sadly not interesting to people anymore, as they think they are boring and not relevant to the present day. The word 'classic' has always described something that's quintessential, so Penguin want to bring back the meaning of 'classic' into their range of novels.
• preptrump.comA couple of months before the presidential debate, Donald Trump said he was going to ask his fellow supporters for help on what he should say on the big day, so we decided to take full advantage of this by making a website. PrepTrump.com is a website that lets people "help" Mr. Trump prepare for the big debate, using all the idiotic and misleading statements he's already said before.
• KIWI - Escalator BrushA simple, outdoor idea to promote the shoe polish brand 'KIWI'
• FRANK - The Illusion of Peer PressurePeer pressure acts as an illusion of the involuntary consumption of illegal substances; it is difficult to see it when you’re in the presence of it up close. These digital prints are optical illusions, showing peer pressure quotes that are easy to see from far away, but difficult to see face-to-face.
• Phishing on the StreetBrief: Create a short film that stops people from being fooled by phishing. I wanted to prove that people trust their emails more than actual people, so I grabbed my friend (who isn't afraid of a little rejection) to ask for random people's email addresses and passwords whilst I filmed him. I had great fun. He didn't.
