New Jim Beam ad campaign brought to by Jim Beam and Energy BBDO in Chicago. We manage the jimbeam.com domain for Jim Beam. The campaign celebrates people that have "The Stuff Inside" and have authentically pursued their dreams. Russ Abbott has a shop in Decatur, GA and has built his business the old fashioned way, with a dream and elbow grease or is that elbow ink?

The VW Toureg Butterfly
Still trying to understand the significance of the butterfly tattoo on her back and buying a VW. Seems like a gratuitous use of tattoos to connect with a younger audience.

This Is Officially My Favorite Tatt'ad Campaign, Ever!
What are they selling in these ads? Who cares?
PETA Shows Their Ink
PETA leverages the cover of Ink to make their point. Ami James from Miami Ink fame also poses in the ad campaign. Interesting strategy that will appeal to more progressive people that will have to hang up their leather Doc Maartens if they will be true to the message.

Tattoos Still In Fashion.
As reported last month on PSFK blog, tattoos are still very much in fashion and continue to show up in advertising, on the runway and on the bodies of our youth. Levi's continues to utilize ink in their advertising with their latest installation above.

Video Game Tattoo Applet
A new video game launched in the UK has created a viral, dynamic applet that allows you to create a tattoo to be placed anywhere you want on this fine young lady. So, of course I wanted to see what a tribute to this blog might look like. Check out the virtual tattoo parlor here, Crusty Demons Tattoo Parlor.

Product To Care For Tattoos
Again, faux looking spider design - but a cool usage for this lotion to keep your tatt's looking so new that the spider thinks its a real web.

Sexy, Sexy, Sexy
Not a real tattoo, but definitely thought-provoking....

My Ink'd Brand
- I'm the Managing Director for the Chicago office of a National marketing agency and a life-long tattoo enthusiast. If I didn't have the good fortune to have such a great career in marketing, I would own the coolest tattoo shop in the world. And hey, I still might make it happen. Tatt'ad is my outlet to combine my two passions for the branding of companies and the branding of people. I hope to create the single largest collection of advertising that contains or utilizes tattoos.
