updates

My 9 months of uselessness came to an end as I joined an ad agency 2 days ago. It looks like I will be mainly providing ideas for local clients but since I am being asked to work on the ad storyboard along with development of print ads, I am pretty excited about it.
First day at office involved the boss letting me know he is the boss and I am pretty much fine witht that - for the time being.He seems like a nice guy, who started this agency from scratch and has pulled it through some tough times. He has been in the business of ads for the last 25 years, so I guess I could learn a thing or two from him. Besides, he said he would help me figure out where exacty my talent lies. And he gave me a couple of awesome books for reference - International Advertising Design 2 and Clio! Highly suggest these books for those in the advertising field. More updates on the job likely to be the main source of fodder for this blog.
