  Some of it's jargon, but some of it is legit.

  • please elaborate will you– utopian1/9

    "“using a strong visual system that reflects the overall equity, character and building blocks of the parent brand”"– monospaced2/9

    pretty straightforward I'd say– monospaced3/9

    legit copy. some people are just bitter they didn't think of it.– lambsy4/9

    "We conducted extensive brand evaluation and competitive brandscape analysis then developed a strategic brand platform"– monospaced5/9

    brand platform." not bad– monospaced6/9

    "creating a sticky landscape that will allow the brand to evolve"– utopian7/9

    its still bad– cannonball19788/9

    Some make sense, but are expressed in pretentious bullshitty ways. They deserve to be on that site.– CyBrainX9/9

  “The identity is based on the idea of three modalities as ways of two cultures as well as two histories interacting”

  the complexity of this statement is amazing

  Also really like this one.

  I don't mind the jargon so much as long the folio is solid...
  ... what's annoying is when a marketing co / agency puts up a bullshit site w/nothing but talk and 'about us' type shit w/out sharing any work... ... that's when the jargon becomes... jargon

  I'm with mono - they haven't looked hard enough for the proper bullshit. Lots of it sounds reasonable. Plus they've pulled sentences out of context.

  Could have been funny if it wasn't such a half-arsed effort.

  I'm in a big agency.

  When you are presenting in a big meeting, It's necessary to throw out bullshit jargon to show you're smart.

  But I've seen agency websites that are 100% jargon, total shit. Paragraphs upon paragraphs of drivel.

  • lol@that second paragraph.
    "excuse me? are you the expert in dynamic brand derealization and analysis?"– monNom1/3

    "throw out bullsht jargon"? You don't have anything meaningful to say to the client? Surely you put some thought into the work– Josev2/3

    Big agencies are full of bullshitters who don't even understand what they're doing– animatedgif3/3

  Hi. My name is BR醆 B@$h. Slick and sleek, I capture polished images that sell beauty, rendering a reality in far greater definition than the eye may even comprehend. At its best, photography carves out a world through light and shadow that represents reality transformed, beyond a document, simulating the physical complete with a sense of space, time, weight and corporeal properties Through rich, sensual color, my works exhale a sense of life; through a complex tonal range, I capture moments. Shooting stunning models, beautiful cars, and magnificent scenery, I have one finger on the shutter release, and another on the future.
