Art & Copy is a powerful new film about advertising and inspiration. The creative is directed by Doug Pray (SURFWISE, SCRATCH, HYPE!) and explores some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time such as George Lois, Mary Wells, Dan Wieden, Lee Clow and Hal Riney. 

“What’s different and perhaps surprising about this movie, is that it isn’t about bad advertising, that 98% which so often annoys and disrespects its audience. I didn’t want to make a doc that just trashes trashy advertising. Too easy, too obvious, and why bother? Instead, granted access to a handful of the greatest advertising minds of the last fifty years, I felt it could be a more powerful statement to focus the film only on those rare few who actually moved and inspired our culture with their work. And that higher standard made me want to make a film that reflected the same kind of disciplined artistic approach that my subjects used.” – Doug Pray

Art & Copy is currently viewing at the Oak Street Cinema in Minneapolis on Thursday, November 5th at 7pm. It will also be coming soon to the St. Anthony Main Theatre in Minneapolis although they do not specify when on their web page.

I’ve suspended my blogging in favor of carving out as much time as possible with my wife and new born son. Miles Nesta was born April 1st and since his arrival – as all parents will confirm – it has become a bit more challenging to keep all of the balls in the air. The HMP blog has not been updated as regularly as I would have liked especially as so much killer content awaits publishing.

For the patient among you, I’ll soon be releasing an additional installment of my interview with Kat Dalager as well as publishing a brand new series of interviews that I conducted with Mark Pakulski – the senior art buyer at  Olson. In the coming weeks, I’ll also be launching an exciting new product that I’m confident will be well received by both still and video shooters alike. Thanks for your patience. It is great to be back….and as a dad.
