SUMMARY:AAF Speaker Series: What Else Do You Do?
DESCRIPTION:POSTPONED due to Hurricane Francine. \nAshton Dunn helps brands identify\, understand and engage communities through ideas and real world action. Ash operates his own creative and artist management agency based in New Orleans\, nice dream industries; he writes the briefs and bids; he handles business affairs and takes out the trash. He also quite literally moonlights as a radio host for New Orleans’ Jazz & Heritage music station – WWOZ 90.7 FM – each Monday night. Ash is Reddit’s former head of creative excellence. Before moving to New Orleans Ash held creative strategy posts at west coast ad agencies Chiat/Day\, Media Arts Lab\, and Saatchi & Saatchi.

SUMMARY:AAF Speaker Series: Being Unignorable with Michelle Edelman
DESCRIPTION:The average American is exposed to 4\,000-10\,000 ads per day. It’s unlikely we remember even a small percentage of them. Even fewer will speak to you or make an unignorable impression that you will act upon. Michelle will share the power of human insights in creating unignorable advertising. You’ll learn how to develop a compelling insight\, and why it’s so vital to creativity that has an effect in the marketplace. \nDon’t forget to bring a donation for our Toy Drive! \nThis holiday\, we’re teaming up with the Nubian Kruzers Motorcycle Club for a special children’s toy drive! Join us in spreading cheer by donating new\, unwrapped toys—action figures\, dolls\, playsets\, toy cards\, and outdoor toys. Bring your contribution to our upcoming speaker’s luncheon and let’s make this season magical for kids in need. \n \n

SUMMARY:AAF September Speaker Series - Ken Spera: "From Lizards to Laughter"
DESCRIPTION:Join us\, Friday\, September 15\, at Jubans as Executive Creative Director Ken Spera talks about building great brands. Insurance advertising was boring\, predictable\, and safe. Then in the late 90s\, a brand took a chance and decided to speak to its customers with wit\, charm\, and a little irreverence. That brand was GEICO and they changed the way people expect insurance marketing to look and sound. Ken Spera will take you through the formative years of the GEICO brand that he helped build from a scrappy contender to the most memorable insurance brand in the world.
