If you haven’t seen the Old Spice ads featuring Isaiah Mustafa then we take it you have been living in the hills of Guam. This highly successful campaign was derived from the minds at Wieden+Kennedy. Guess what? AdSaint will be hosting an event that will feature Eric Baldwin, one of the creative directors behind the Old Spice campaign, on Thursday, September 30th, 2010 at 6:30pm.
Eric Baldwin is originally from the St. Louis area and began his career here as a graphic designer, working for Phoenix Creative and Zipatoni.
In 2003 he moved to San Francisco to work as a graphic designer and art director at Butler, Shine, Stern & Partners. After running the design department at BSSP, he made the jump to Wieden+Kennedy in 2006 to work as an Art Director and produced award-winning work for CareerBuilder.com, Target and Old Spice.
Baldwin currently serves as creative director for Old Spice and Electronic Arts. His recent work on EA earned him honors at Cannes and many others, while Old Spice earned the 2010 Cannes Film Grand Prix for “Smell Like a Man, Man,” as well as an Emmy.
AdSaint is elated to host this event at Mercury Labs; here are the “deets….”
