thinkLA AdJam 2008 - Sept 08
Artisan was psyched to rock out with some of LA’s top media and advertising agencies at AdJam 2008!
Deutsch’s “Hellvettica“, Ogilvy & Mather’s “The Focus Group”, OMD’s “The Jean Claude Van Damme Revival”, TBWA \ Chiat \ Day’s “Chiat \ Riot!”, The Gary Group’s “GG Unit”, The Phelps Group’s “Dephelps Mode”, and Threshold Interactive’s “THRASHOLD” all duked it out, Battle-of-the-Bands style, at the Henry Fonda Theater’s Music Box (Hollywood) on Sept 11th.
Presenting the event was main sponsor Specific Media, along with Microsoft Advertising, Pandora, Spiral Frog, Myxer, SplashCast, and Travel Ad Network.
