    Ad agency WONGDOODY has hired Pam Fujimoto as executive creative director. Based in the Los Angeles office, Fujimoto will spearhead business development and client creative initiatives; she joins the agency from Creature in Seattle where she served as creative director. This move marks Fujimoto’s return to WONGDOODY, where she got her start in advertising as an art director in 1999.

    With more than a decade of experience, Fujimoto most recently oversaw creative efforts for Truvia Natural Sweetener and Dickies Work Wear at Creature in Seattle. Prior to Creature, she worked at TBWA Chiat/Day in New York where she launched the “In An Absolut World” campaign for Absolut Vodka, and worked with clients that included Sprint, Skittles, Starburst and Snickers as associate creative director.

    During her first tour of duty with WONGDOODY, she worked on several campaigns for the Seattle SuperSonics, Alaska Airlines, Seattle International Film Festival and the Museum of Flight. During her six-year tenure, she also contributed to a successful Adidas campaign that won recognition from nearly every industry awards organization. Over the course of her career her work has garnered awards from Cannes Lions, D&AD, One Show and Communication Arts, and she also served as a judge for the 2013 Communications Arts Annual.

    “The best of both worlds would be to have an executive creative director who understands our culture–and one with outside perspective at shops like Chiat,” said Tracy Wong, co-founder and executive creative director of WONGDOODY, who added, “She is a part of our past, but she represents our future.”

    Director Kacper Larski Joins RSA Films For Spot Representation

    Tuesday, November 12, 2024

    RSA Films has added director Kacper Larski to its roster for commercial representation in the U.S. Larski is known for his work in automotive and sport, and a style of filmmaking which features epic visuals and gripping montage, often combining the real and surreal. Among his most recent commercial films are Garmin’s “Fenix 8” (direct to brand), U.S. Army Reserve’s “Helper” (DDB Chicago) and Bushmills Whiskey’s “Follow No One” (Mekanism). He’s also directed campaigns for Hyundai, Jeep, GMC, Subaru, VW, Mazda and Chevrolet.

    Larski’s distinctive aesthetic emerged in one of his first projects, Land Rover’s “68 Years Later,” which won a Cannes Young Directors Award in 2016. Two years later, he directed the “Greatness is Rare” campaign for BBDO Toronto and the Canadian Paralympic Committee which won Cannes Lion Gold. Prior to joining RSA, Larski had most recently been repped in the U.S. market by production house Eleanor.

    “The camera and film for me have always been about the ability to live 1,000 lives,” Larski said. “Stylistically, I want to transport viewers in whatever stories I’m telling--a super athlete’s runner’s high, a skier’s dream powder, a giant’s tale, even driving in space.”

    “Kacper is one of the most exciting filmmakers I’ve seen over the last several years,” said Luke Ricci, president, RSA Films US. “Whether it’s a character, an emotion, an environment, car or other product, he has a special and distinctive way of capturing and articulating the world around him in all his work. He is a fantastic addition to our RSA family.”

    “Joining RSA is a dream come true,” Larski said. “The roster includes some of the best filmmakers in the world, with founder Ridley Scott... Read More
