Happy Monday!

What’s a march without a little laughter?

Penguins are not the biggest, most feared or most dominating animal on the planet, but they are uniquely majestic and adorable. Ever since elementary school, when I did a class project on the flightless birds, I was hooked. There is a special magnetism to this creature, shared by few other animals. Part of this attraction could be that a penguin is the style equivalent of Jay Gatsby in the animal kingdom.

“Impeccable tux, Old Sport.”

Starting the workweek is not the easiest task for anybody, but a cute penguin just might be what the doctor ordered.

(FYI – There’s no limit to the number of times you can watch the following video)

Penguins FTW (For The Win).

Have an Awesome Week!

Happy Labor Day!

Is it possible to blur the line between working and having fun?

On this Labor Day, a holiday that celebrates workers, Americans across the country will fire up the grill and eat some delicious fare without the cloud of work hanging over their heads. Today is intended to be spent with family and friends as the summer season begins to wind down. Summer vacations are in the rear-view mirror. However, what if work didn’t have to necessarily feel like work?

Time for a stroll down memory lane, specifically around the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area…

Here’s to making your dreams come true…your way.

Have a Great Labor Day!

Happy Monday!

Just another Jimmy’s Daily Planet electronic letter.

Seizing the opportunity for a viral video moment, Marvel creatively filled in the narrative gap for where the mighty and powerful Thor was during the 2016 movie Captain America: Civil War. The general tone of the Marvel cinematic superhero universe is bright, explosive fun with comic book dialogue. And this lighthearted aura opens the door for marketing strategies that play on that entertaining dynamic.

Exhibit A:

By the hammer of Thor, that’s awesome.

Have a Mighty Week!

Happy Monday!

Typically, a music video doesn’t require an explanation or introduction.

However, Coldplay doesn’t announce or produce music videos in typical fashion.

(As described on Coldplay’s website)

“The video was filmed in Mexico City during the band’s sold out Latin American stadium tour in April. Directed by Marcus Haney and shot predominantly on Super 8mm film, it features the band cycling to their show at the city’s Foro Sol venue (where they set a new attendance record). The video begins with Charlie Chaplin’s speech from The Great Dictator, which also opens the #AHFODtour live show.”

Coldplay’s newest music video is to their hit single, “A Head Full of Dreams.” This song is the title of the album, which makes the journey from the streets of Mexico City during the day to a rocking stadium at night all the more appropriate. The music video, energized by the uplifting sound and lyrics by the pop rock quartet, came together for a unique Coldplay experience.

Have an Inspired Week!
