    Recently, Boulder’s Coupe Studios challenged Egotist readers to pose sound questions via Twitter in preparation for their new “Ideas. Amplified.” campaign from gyro’s Denver office. The crowd-sourcing initiative launches today (you'll see it over there on the right) and features original animated soundscapes by Coupe, animated visuals by gyro AD and resident doodle maestro, Rob Lewis, and questions submitted by Egotist readers. Writer Ricky Lambert and ECD Cameron Day pitched in on the concept, along with Coupe’s multi-faceted sound designers and composers. Credit for the twittered questions appear in each banner. Tweet your question today for consideration in future banners — the weirder, the better.

  • Overton Square Gets a New Logo for Its New Life

    / Comments (1)

    We at the Egotist are excited, and rightfully so, about the impending increase in awesomeness of Midtown's Overton Square. Along with Loeb Properties' projected $20 million investment to revive the arts and entertainment district are plans for a second location of Local, the relocation of Hattiloo Theater, and gourmet hotdog restaurant from Yolo's Taylor Berger.
    Overton Square's plans project the area to be more bike-friendly, more pedestrian-friendly, and all around an even greater asset to our city than it already is.

    Naturally, the Square needed a new logo. Enter Red Deluxe.
    Nice job, guys.

  • inferno Recognized for Smart Management, Client Service

    / Comments (2)

    The Memphis Business Journal has recognized local agency inferno and its principals Tim Sellers and Dan O'Brien for their smart navigation of the past few years' recession. Sellers and O'Brien credit their strength with a diverse book of clients and a commitment to focusing on the agency's best assets. They made the smart decision, at the start of the recession in 2007, to focus on the niche biotech industry, an industry whose brands (like client Transnetyx) they've proven to be quite adept at branding and marketing.
