Six Things You Didn't Know about McCann N.Y. CCOs Sean Bryan and Tom Murphy
Posted in: Uncategorized
We step out of the box today by featuring a pair of creatives in Six Things, but for good reason. McCann New York Chief Creative Officers Sean Bryan and Tom Murphy have been a pair longer than they’ve been married to their own wives. This month, they celebrate 20 years together as a team since they first met at JWT New York. Some context: That was when “Friends” was a hot new sitcom, OJ was driving around in a white bronco, and Sean “had an ill-advised goatee.”
Since then, they moved to DDB, where they worked on Budweiser, BudLight and Cars.com as well as the launch of McDonald’s “I’m Loving It.” In 2004 they moved to McCann’s flagship in New York and became chief creative officers three years ago, helping to add a dozen new clients and expand the agency’s category-base. They also led some standout work, for clients such as Verizon, Sony, Staples and Holiday Inn. We most recently saw them on Jose Cuervo on a Cinco De Mayo campaign that made a gorgeous mural of U.S. citizens’ ridiculous interpretations of the holiday; the funny, but eye-opening Evolve campaign that used dildos and maxi-pads to highlight the importance of gun safety for Evolve; and a Nikon effort showcasing the fun family life of gay fathers Kordale and Kaleb Lewis.
But they share a lot more than just work, as we’ll find out in this edition of Six Things.
