“The consumer is not a moron. She is your wife.” – David Ogilvy Jason Brantly lives by such words. He’s a creative director who believes that “people don’t read advertising, they read what interests them.” (That’s another Ogilvy quote.) Advertising should be engaging, endearing, informative and most of all, intelligent. Even if it’s humorous, off the wall or different. The work Jason has been associated with, or penned and art directed himself, is always simple and smart. No matter the client. No matter the agency. Before moving to Philadelphia, Jason had senior stints at J. Walter Thompson/Houston, Moroch-Leo Burnett/Dallas, The Richards Group/Dallas, and Y&R/Austin. Don’t let the Texas roots fool you. Jason’s work has received national and international attention. He’s had advertising published in Communication Arts, The One Show, The Art Directors Club, The Obie Awards, The Clio Awards, been awarded National Addy Awards and most recently garnered a silver award in the British D&AD Show. Jason is a proud member of the ADC, the AIGA, the AAF and currently serves as an Advisor on The Board of Directors for The Art Directors Club of Philadelphia.
