A trip to M&C Saatchi

So last week we were invited to M&C Saatchi, courtesy of Graham Fink.
Naturally some research was required before going, and I felt a wee bit intimidated.

It was my first time going to the Golden Square, which was a big thing, and the London office of M&C Saatchi was really impressive.

We were led into a room with turf as the floor, and two walls were comprised of blackboard and whiteboard. It was rather cool. We'd been preparing some work on anti-drinking, about when you are drunk your mates think you are a twat, but wont tell you this to your face.

I don't agree with that in a way, it's an interesting slant, but I don't think people will take note and change something so integrated into culture. If anything, Katie's anti-drinking culture rant was more effective. The irony was that there were a selection of beverages when we took a break, and yes, most people were drinking the alcoholic ones.

Not much of the work was good, but hey, we're newbies. I think we learned more this way.
The examples of good posters were quite illuminating, and all of the Dave Trott bits were really useful.

Afterwards some of us had an exploration of that floor of the agency, there were some really random but cool things, like an igloo made of plastic air bag type things woven together.
There were a lot of sheds with inflatable people in them. Weeeeird.
