Jacob Shipley is a copywriter based in Los Angeles. He’s currently working at Deutsch, where he makes campaigns for Nintendo. Before that he worked at 180LA, where he made work for Orgain and Cox. He learned how to do all this at UT Austin, where he made student campaigns for Burger King and Men’s Wearhouse, as well as dumb promo videosfor portfolio reviews. But now he doesn’t go to school, so he spends his free time trolling LinkedIn, writing one-liner movie reviews, recording fake radio shows, and reminiscing about making stop motion Geico adswhen he was 14. If that’s not enough information for you to steal his identity and gain access to his numerous personal banking accounts, all of which are growing at unbelievable rates that you can’t even imagine, you can read his resumeor send suspicious emails to jacobshipley9000@gmail.com.
My brain circa 2011
One slow summer, my brother and I decided to do our own take on GEICO's "Rhetorical Questions" campaign. As any cultured 11 and 14-year-old might do, we put all our chips on the most effective form of comedy we knew: violence.
