Art & Copy
January 28 7:00 pm
Metro Cinema, Citadel Theatre

Presented by the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada Alberta North Chapter and the Advertising Club of Edmonton as part of Advertising Week 2010

Tickets are $10 each and may be purchased in advance through the Ad Club website (encouraged) or at the door. Visit www.adclubedm.com/calendar.asp?calID=186 to purchase tickets online.

ART & COPY reveals the stories behind and the personal odysseys of some of the most influential advertising visionaries of our time and their campaigns, including Lee Clow (Apple Computer 1984, and today's iPod); Dan Wieden ("Just Do It"); Phyllis K. Robinson (who invented the "me generation" with Clairol); Hal Riney (who helped President Reagan get re-elected); and George Lois (who saved MTV and launched Tommy Hilfiger overnight).

Directed by Doug Pray (HYPE! SCRATCH), ART & COPY captures the creative energy and passion behind the iconic campaigns that have had a profound impact on American culture. Featuring rare interviews with the aforementioned industry legends, the film seeks to identify the elements that transform an slogan into a pop culture catch phrases.

"ART & COPY provides a window into the creative process and the individuals who have changed our lives in ways we may not realize," said Mary Warlick, CEO of The One Club. "The movie looks at advertising not as products flying off the shelf but as the work of a few American heroes who feel passionately about their craft, ideas, and the ability of ideas to change how people feel."

Thank you 27 Marbles Training for securing this wonderful opportunity on behalf of the industry.
