Blogger #2! #2? WAH!

Yo, people.

Living the unique experience of being a “intern” at Lowe NY for two months and a half, I was recruited by Fefa Romano to cover the Lowe Worldwide Interactive Immersion to be held here at the Big Apple. That sounds pretty cool, especially when she mentioned that I would be doing the fun covering of the event.

So, to satisfy your thirst for information, I’ll be following around planners, AD/CW, CD’s and CEO’s all around. However, I rather talk about the person than the professional. After all, who is the man/woman behind the great idea? Are they evil and terrible? Or are they nice and cool? Well, the intention is to make them look a little bit humam for all of us.

Uh, I almost forgot. I’m Lucas Cardoso, seventh quarter student from Miami Ad School.


ãh? O que ele disse? Calma! Olha aqui embaixo!

Fala, galera.


Vivendo experiência única de ser “estagiário” da Lowe NY por dois meses e meio, eu, Lucas Cardoso, aluno do 7˚ periodo da Miami Ad School, fui recrutado pela querida Fernanda Romando, a Fefa, para cobrir a Lowe Interactive Immersion, envento que acontece aqui, na cidade que nunca dorme. Idéia, aliás, excelente, pois estarei cobrindo a parte divertida do evento.

Portanto, para satisfazer sua sede de informação, estarei seguindo implacavelmente Redatores, Diretores de Arte e os grandes figurões da publicidade mundial por todo os lados. Tudo isso para responder a pergunta: “E afinal, como é que esses caras são?”. Logo, tentarei falar mais da pessoa do que do profissional. Pois eu também quero saber quem é o homem ou a mulher por trás da grande idéia. Seriam eles estranhos e abomináveis? Ou amistosos e serenos? Bem, quem sabe assim eles se tornam mais acessíveis para todos nós, iniciantes no mundo publicitário.

Aquele abraço,
Lucas

Blogger/Quasi-Stalker #1

As someone who will be following the every move of the convention attendees, I thought I should introduce myself (picture included), so that I won't be mistaken for a stalker or someone's manic ex-girlfriend.
My name is Kristen Kielhorn, a copywriter in my 7th Quarter at Miami Ad School. Cultivated in the MidWest, I can guarantee you'll catch me saying things like "pop" instead of soda (or cola or whatever you guys call it) and adding an " 's " to any store, hotel or restuarant name. I have a natural talent for recalling useless/random facts, which I likely will include in this blog, but I can never remember simple things like passwords or pin numbers (I'm pretty sure customer service knows me by voice).
As one of your devoted Lowe Worldwide Interactive Immersion Bloggers (longest title ever) I will keep you updated with posts about presentations and, most importantly, about the brilliant people filling the seats. For those of you attending the LWII, be on the lookout for me. I'll be like a little shark/sponge, cirling and absorbing everything, but please don't hesitate to wave me down to chat (even if it's just to tell me I have toilet paper trailing from my shoe). For those of you who are unable to attend LWII, I suggest you check this blog religiously. Ok, maybe an overexaggeration, but you'll be missing out on more than a trip to New York if you don't.
I look forward to seeing everyone bright-eyed and bushy-tailed Wednesday morning!

Bloggers

By the way, I will be blogging as well! :-)

Yes, we have bloggers!

During the next three days, we will have four bloggers tagging along with you so we can share everything we are doing and learning with the Lowe world. Our bloggers are Esteban Franco (Spain), Lucas Cardoso (Brasil), Kristen Kielhorn (USA), Ken Lo (Canada). They are Miami Ad School students in NY and are keen to meet you and tell everyone what you are up to. Be nice to them. We will have posts in English, Portuguese and Spanish and we will have pictures as well, loads of pictures! We will also have quotes. The section that we will call Overheard will be all about things people say, much in the style of http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/
Thanks, everyone! This was Fefa, blogging from Devon's username.
