Six Things You Didn’t Know About La Comunidad’s Jose Molla
Posted in: Uncategorized
La Comunidad co-founder Jose Molla originally made a name for himself as a creative director on Nike, out of Wieden + Kennedy Portland and Amsterdam. Then more than a decade ago, the Argentine native and his brother Joaquin opened their own shop in Miami and Buenos Aires. La Comunidad has become a force of its own in both the general and multicultural markets, landing on Ad Age's Agency A-List this year and turning out work known for its cultural savvy–including a Volvo app that allowed users to get an x-ray view of the car, an MTV campaign that became a series on the network and a Converse campaign that brought beauty to rundown areas of Latin America.
And while it may be industry knowledge that Mr. Molla has survived a shark attack, that tidbit is just a small anecdote from this creative leader's action-packed life. Here's this week's installment of Six Things, our ongoing series uncovering little-known facts about adland's creative leaders.
1. His grandfather opened an ad agency. Luis J. Molla launched Argentine shop Exitus, in 1925. His father Rodolfo opened another ad agency, called Molla y Molla. You could say it runs in the family.
