Manischewitz is a beloved staple in any Jewish pantry. However, both the brand and the Kosher food market were on the decline. Can a rebrand not only lift them both back up, but rekindle joy and connection too? Lisa Smith, former Executive Creative Director at JKR, speaks to how she and her team did more than create snazzy new packaging, and instead offered a seat at the table.To see the change of brand for yourself, visit achangeofbrand.com or follow us on Instagram @achangeofbrand.Created by Matchstic (matchstic.com / @matchstic), hosted by Blake Howard (@blakehoward), co-hosted by Tracy Clark, edited and scored by ATAM Audio, brief-in by Dee Boyle, produced by Brianna Belcher, and artwork by Stephanie Kim and Michael Martino.“Sergio's Magic Dustbin" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 

“You have the first right to be wrong.” — Chris Do As CEO and Executive Creative Director of Blind, Chris has contributed to the motion design industry through decades of award-winning inspiring work. He is the founder of The Futur, an education platform helping millions of creative professionals learn the business skills they were never taught in school. Chris has spoken at global conferences and built a wide-reaching community through courses, mentorship, and content. His mission is clear: to teach one billion people how to make a living doing what they love.  Nearly a decade ago, Chris and I had a conversation that inspired and influenced the way I think about work. At the time, I was at a crossroads in my own creative journey and Chris was starting to explore a different path beyond client‑service. The seeds of The Futur were being planted. In this episode of Object Subject Form, I invited Chris on for a reflective and forward‑looking chat with the full weight and perspective of the past 10 years.  We talk about burnout, ambition, and why the idea of work-life integration feels more relevant than the myth of “balance” in creative careers. We also discuss how AI is changing the nature of creative direction, and why staying curious and open-minded is more important than ever. In our industry, especially in motion design, exhaustion is often the cost of doing great work. We're trained to think that sleepless nights and nonstop output are the price of entry. But what happens when your work begins to consume the life it was meant to support? Chris offers a different perspective. A concept not a centered around a perfect balance, but a designed system. A creative life that supports longevity, not just output, and a way forward that honors our creativity without burning us out. If you've ever asked: “Is the grind worth it?” “How do I keep going without losing myself?” “What's next, personally or professionally?” This one is for you. – Connect with Chris on LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/thechrisdo/ – Connect with Chris on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/thechrisdo/ – The Futur on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheFuturishere – The Futur Website: https://www.thefutur.com/ – The Futur on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefuturishere/ – Connect with Simon: https://zaap.bio/simonclowes – Object Subject Form on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ObjectSubjectForm – Object Subject Form on Instagram:  https://instagram.com/objectsubjectform

Dans cet épisode, David Raichman, Executive Creative Director & AI Creative Lead chez Ogilvy Paris, partage avec nous plusieurs années de recul sur l'usage de l'IA générative en agence. Ogilvy a fait le choix de ne pas courir après la technologie, mais de l'utiliser comme un levier créatif au service des marques – et surtout, du sens. David nous emmène dans les coulisses de cette transition : l'adoption progressive en agence, les résistances, les promesses… mais aussi les limites bien réelles, comme la standardisation des rendus, les biais culturels ou l'impact environnemental. Loin du discours techno-centré, il plaide pour un usage réfléchi, singulier et éthique de l'IA. Un outil puissant, oui, mais à condition que l'idée reste humaine.Hébergé par Ausha.

What topic would you like us to cover next?Getting fired can be devastating to your career - or it can be the catalyst for something greater. For Patrick Collister, being unceremoniously dismissed from a French-owned direct marketing agency where he was billed at £1000 per hour became a transformational moment that propelled him toward  success.In this fascinating conversation, Patrick takes us behind the scenes of his remarkable journey from copywriter trainee at Ogilvy to Executive Creative Director and eventually Head of Design at Google. Patrick unpacks how his most humiliating professional setback opened the door to understanding direct marketing just as digital communications was transforming the industry.Patrick shares the untold story behind one of Britain's most iconic advertisements - the "Accrington Stanley" milk commercial that continues to resonate decades later. Discover how that instantly recognisable line "Accrington Stanley, who are they? Exactly!" wasn't the original plan at all, but emerged from rejection and creative necessity.Throughout our discussion, Patrick explores the paradox at the heart of effective marketing: the tension between creative risk-taking and business pragmatism. He challenges the concept of "risk" altogether, suggesting that what we call risky is often just exciting and unfamiliar. His refreshingly practical definition of creativity as "nothing more and nothing less than solving problems" strips away mystique and makes innovation accessible to everyone.For marketers navigating today's fractured media landscape, Patrick offers invaluable insights on reframing challenges, interrogating briefs properly, and fostering environments where meaningful creativity can thrive. His stories of pitch disasters, encounters with industry legends, and observations about the current state of advertising deliver both entertainment and enlightenment.Subscribe now to hear Patrick's full conversation and learn how our greatest professional mistakes often become our most powerful catalysts for growth and reinvention.

From wild college nights to the reflective moments in our 20s and 30s, we explore the evolution of our relationship with drinking and the profound impact it has had on our lives.

En el episodio de hoy me siento con Isaac Pagán Muñoz, VP y Executive Creative Director para Pepsi Foods North America. Isaac me cuenta cómo fueron sus años creciendo en Puerto Rico, el impacto que tuvo el Miami Ad School en su desarrollo profesional, sus años trabajando en agencias de publicidad como Ovilgy y Leo Burnett, y la transición a ser director creativo de Pepsi Foods North America. También hablamos sobre la diferencia de ser director de arte vs director creativo, cuándo las marcas deben utilizar el mercadeo de celebridades, el rol de la publicidad paga en una estrategia creativa y el impacto que ha tenido la cultura latina en el mercadeo global. Tres "takeaways" de este episodio: 1. Para crear un ambiente creativo saludable, tú necesitas tener una diversidad de pensamiento que haga que el trabajo sea mejor cada vez. 2. Los premios son un resultado del gran trabajo. El fin no es ganar un León de Cannes, el fin es hacer una gran campaña. Gane o no gane. 3. Cuando vayas a hacer algo, asegúrate que te apasione. Y una ves encuentres que te apasiona, aplícate y trabaja más de lo que se espera. Puedes conectar con Isaac aquí: LinkedIn No olvides suscribirte a nuestro canal de Youtube.
