Hasta La Creative!

LONDON – Ann Summers has redesigned its London flagship Marble Arch store to better reflect its “sexy, innovative and fun” core values.

OK people here’s the deal. A good friend of ours sent us this pic and made us try to guess from inside which agency the image was taken. In this case, we think it’s pretty much a gimme, but who knows. Maybe some of you are colorblind. If so, the color on the walls is pukishly yellow/green.

If you’re not colorblind, disregard that description. We’ve made a little poll below, which contains some choices to…choose from. Vote away &#151 and then click continued to see the answer.

Also, should you manage to snag an image from another shop and decide to send it to us, we’ll play this little game again. Isn’t it fun taking BDAs down a peg?

New Career Opportunities Daily: The best jobs in media

Yesterday was a sad day for movie lovers and all fans the most recognizable voice over talent in the industry. Don LaFontaine died at the age of 68. Best known for his movie trailers, NY Times says that LaFontaine voice was used in 350,000 commercials. Most recently a Geico commercial that pokes fun at his famous line “In a world where…”. In the 33 years of his career LaFontaine gained a celebrity like status. And was lampooned by many comedians and imitated by other voice over talents. He will be sorely missed.

“The Voice” – real name Don LaFontaine has passed away at the age of 68 – was the worlds most recognizable announcer. He was the voice that all other voices tried to be. Voiceover artist Ashton Smith once remarked “When you die, the voice you hear in heaven is not Don’s. It’s God trying to sound like Don.” When rereading that quote Tuesday, Smith said “I guess God is going to lose that gig when Don gets up there because Don is just that good.” Source:AP – Hat Tip BAP
