We’re proud to share the trailer for THE GIFT OF TIME, a short film by Seiko produced in partnership with GDP and our teammates at Hakuhodo Inc.. The film explores Japan’s deep connection with time—our most precious resource. Once a moment passes, you can never recapture it. That’s why life’s greatest gift is spending time surrounded by nature; in harmony with loved ones; sharing generously with your community; or crafting the work and art you love most. Last month, the film’s director, Paula Chowles, executive producer, GDP CEO Scott Dadich, and our production team traveled to some of the most beautiful and historic sites in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, and more to speak with a selection of Japan’s most influential cultural figures. Each interviewee shared profound thoughts about time, its impact on their creative work, and its influence on Japanese culture. “The Gift of Time” comes out this fall. Stay tuned, and learn more about the film here: https://lnkd.in/g6JnUruT

The podcast Design Matters by Debbie Millman has been around for nearly two decades—since the pre-iPhone era, when you actually had to load podcasts onto your iPod. Millman, President Emeritus of the AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF GRAPHIC ARTS, has hosted hundreds of scintillating conversations with design luminaries from Milton Glaser to Marian Bantjes to Dr. Dori Tunstall. And this week, GDP’s founder Scott Dadich joined the ranks of her guests. Follow the link to hear an in-depth overview of his creative journey, and the things he learned that helped shape the vision for everything that GDP does now. Millman is famous for diving deep—the conversation goes to unexpected places! And host and guest turn out to be kindred spirits who bond over their formative experiences falling in love with magazines, and their obsessive attention to order and detail. Let us know in the comments which behind the scenes story surprised you the most. https://lnkd.in/gfcmp4Wk #teamgodfreydadich #podcast #design #designmatters #debbiemillman

We’re so excited to welcome Michael Fiore as GDP’s new executive creative director! He will oversee our advertising work, and we’re eager for him to apply his talent, his humor, his award-winning expertise, his deep understanding of our ambitions, and his boundless creative vigor to our projects. Michael started his creative journey as an art director at Kirshenbaum and Bond in New York, before moving on to the international scene at Bates Italia in Milan. Returning stateside, he joined our friends and San Francisco neighbors at Goodby Silverstein & Partners, where he worked with Saturn, HP, Haagen-Dazs, and Doritos. Later, his role as global group creative director at mcgarrybowen’s San Francisco office—where he worked with our own Hannah Sanderson!—saw him spearheading Intel’s global campaigns, notably for the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics. More recently at Eleven, Inc., Michael managed major accounts like Dignity Health and Samsung. Michael is an inspired creative leader who understands the role that “finding the fun” plays in crafting great work. We’re lucky to have him join us.

We’re really proud of the client-agency collaboration on Microsoft WorkLab. Worklab is an editorial platform for articles, newsletters, research papers, data journalism, and podcast episodes about the future of work. The recently released Work Trend Index report demonstrates how WorkLab continues to drive the national conversation, sparking follow-on coverage from WIRED, The Verge, Forbes, Axios, Fast Company, Good Morning America, and more. We love to see that, and we also love to see WorkLab getting recognition from the online media mavens at Digiday. WorkLab just won the award for Best Agency/Client Collaboration in the Digiday Content Marketing Awards. This win is a recognition of Microsoft’s deep commitment to research, data gathering, and sharing the information that business leaders need to keep up with a landscape that’s in a constant state of transformation. It’s also a gratifying recognition of the great work of so many members of the GDP team, who are involved in every aspect of WorkLab’s editorial excellence—from assigning and editing and writing to design and layout to producing and recording.
