We’ve confirmed a couple more departures at TBWA‘s Los Angeles offices. In addition to yesterday’s news about executive director Jason Clement leaving the agency:

These are only the latest changes atop the TBWA\Chiat\Day LA team, most prominent among them being the appointment of Luis DeAnda to replace outgoing president Carisa Bianchi two weeks ago following a round of cuts that occurred back in March.

We have no word on where O’Neill is going or who will fill either of the now-vacant positions. Updates as we receive them.

Macklemore, Ryan Lewis Bring Grammy Life to NYC Bus

Posted in: Uncategorized

Most likely, this video of Macklemore and his Jazzy Jeff shadow Ryan Lewis is a staged marketing effort from TBWA\Chiat\Day LA to promote the 56th Grammy Awards. The two musicians hop on a New York City bus with a boombox and start performing an impromptu concert full of Macklemore’s signature exuberance and corny hand movements. The riders on the bus start dancing and feeling the music – the bus driver even starts clapping on (probably fake) closed circuit footage.

I’d probably react the same way if Macklemore came on the crosstown bus. But you know how I know it’s not real? Because if anyone came on NYC public transportation with a boombox and started making noise, there will undoubtedly be at least two people who hate it and tell them to shut it off before they turn into depressed and sarcastic versions of the Hulk.
