New Work – A Scantily Clad Ad

Most people know CORDURA® fabrics as the stuff that brings durability to backpacks, outdoor gear and luggage. But they also make a whole bunch of fabrics perfect for apparel. Fabrics that feel good on the body. So showing lots of skin seemed perfect for this campaign.

New Work – Big Time Waste Reduction

We just completed a set of wall clings for Georgia-Pacific Professional and Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Together, they’re doing their part to reduce the amount of waste created by the millions of travelers that go through Atlanta each year. So we did our part by making these cool clings. Look for them in the H-J washrooms next time you’re passing through.

Letterpress and Old No. 7

Awesome letterpress guys Yee-Haw Industries did some posters for Jack Daniel’s. With some Jack Daniel’s. I’ll drink to that.

VisArt is Shutting its Doors

VisArt Video, a mainstay in downtown Carrboro, is closing its doors after more than 20 years of renting independent and art films to the public. It’s a shame for many reasons. For us here at HM&P, they were especially near and dear since they were actually a client back in 1998. We did a small direct mail and poster campaign to help them build awareness and create traffic. Here are a few pieces we found in the vault. Au revoir VisArt.VISARTcreat_2VISARTcreat_3VISARTcreat_5

HMP Golf Outing

This past summer, on one particularly hot day, a bunch of us went golfing. Well, some of us went golfing. Others of us just hit balls into the woods and tore up the grass. It was lots of fun and no one got hurt badly. Big thanks to those agency friends who joined us. And to those of you who are in it, sorry it took so long to get this video out.

How's this for a homepage?

I love this. Who else would have the courage to strip out all their products, all their everything from their home page for an announcement? Of course, who else has the Beatles representing their brand as an announcement? Makes me happy.
