Stephane Jean-Baptiste at Vare Middle School Career Day

Recently, our CEO& Creative Director took a break from meetings, html codes, and managing projects to teach three classes at Edwin H. Vare middle school. It was no small task teaching 6th and 7th graders about marketing, advertisement and creative career choices but if anyone could handle it Stephane could. The highlight for students was the AD analysis project. Students put on their Executive hats and were asked to critique a number of Nouveau Concepts  and  magazine advertisements, identify the target audience, and the surface meaning of the ad’s.
