Interested in Becoming a Digital Creative?
Now there is a post-graduate school with a focus on digital arts and sciences. The new school, Boulder Digital Works, based in Boulder, CO is a partnership of MDC Partners (holding company of such agencies as Crispin, Porter + Bogusky, Colle+McVoy, mono and zig) and the University of Colorado at Boulder as a part of the University of Colorado Extension Division.
The new school will offer a multi-disciplinary, project-based learning program designed to provide the skills needed by future digital leaders and entrepreneurs. Sweden's Hyper Island, one of the most highly regarded digital learning programs in Europe, will be a partner in the program providing exchange programs.
Boulder Digital Works offers a 60-week Certificate Program in Digital Arts and Sciences. The program will begin this Fall with applications due by August 15. (Via DesignTaxi)
So if digital is your passion and the Miami Ad School and Brainco in Minneapolis or The Portfolio School in Chicago doesn't seem to offer what you are looking for, why not head west.

First National Bank - Journey Campaign "Renovate" TV Spot
I have just started to see a third TV spot in the Journey campaign for First National Bank by Bozell. The first two spots were for business and student loans but this last one I assume is for home line of credit. I bring this spot up because of the actor who plays the "husband" struck me as being very familiar. Sure enough, and IMDB.com confirmed my hunch, the "husband" is Bjørn Johnson who played "Herr Schniedelwichsen" in Beerfest and has had small rolls on TV shows like Mad Men, Sons of Anarchy, Dexter, The Sopranos, Charmed and ER. I just thought it was funny and I would share it with everyone.
Red Bull Racing - Times Square Pit Stop Stunt
This stunt for Red Bull Racing was not by Archrival's doing but it is great and it is an Archrival client so...
Red Bull Racing did a slap on the wrist and fined for the illegal stunt but I am sure the video will go viral and everyone who was there that day will tell ten friends.
