ASSORTED CURIOSITIES

A few highlights from the vault.

BURGER KING - SIMPSONS

MILL VALLEY FILM FESTIVAL

The independent film festival wanted to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Seemed like the chance to say all the things traditional clients never let you say. It was rewarded with a Gold Pencil at the One Show and a Bronze Lion at Cannes.

BURGER KING SITHSENSE.COM

Sithsense.com was launched as a tie-in to a Burger King/Star Wars in-store promotion. In staying true to the brand's "have it your way" message, visitors of the site were greeted by Darth Vader and asked to choose any nonspecific object, animal, vegetable or mineral that came to mind. Vader than uses "The Force" to read their minds simply by asking twenty questions or less. Using artificial intelligence, Vader actually grew smarter with every visitor to the site.

INTERNATIONAL ANDY AWARDS ENTRY POSTER

PILSBURY

One of the joys of freelancing is you get to work on all kinds of fun things for all kinds of great people. Okay, maybe that's two joys. Anyway, we wrote this holiday script for McCann that they would later sell and produce.

THE SLIM JIM POCKET TEE

Specially designed to hold exactly one Slim Jim, this pocket t-shirt single-handedly ended the world's meatstick transportation problems.

INTEL SPONSORS OF TOMORROW

Everyone knows about Intel microprocessors. But at Venables Bell & Partners, we also wanted people to get to know the people behind the technology.
