They’re in the plains states, in the Commonwealth of Virginia and high in the Rocky Mountains. What they all have in common: they do great work. OK, they have a little more in common than that. We found that this year’s batch of talent was full of energy, creativity (that’s a shock, right?), and, perhaps most importantly, they’re all friendly. ENERGY: There’s one on the search for America’s best cupcake, forced to go to spinning classes to handle the burden of the search. There’s another who’s training to run an ultramarathon – we’ve been known to drive much shorter distances. CREATIVITY: There’s one who pushed her creative powers to shine the spotlight on a stigmatized disease, making waves while still in her internship. There’s another who won’t stop creating and that includes wool socks and the odd decorative object. And they’re friendly. These are the kind of creatives who can paint a vivid picture and inspire the warmth of coworkers and clients at the same time. They are Screen’s Top Creatives Under 30. JACKIE DE JESU Art Director, Energy BBDO With Jackie DeJesu, if one is good, two is better. “When she walks into a room, she says ‘Hi, Hi,’” says Gwen Rutledge, Creative Director at Energy BBDO. “Where one ‘Hi’ is good enough, Jackie DeJesu will give you two.” She joined Energy BBDO in 2010 and, in the short time since, has worked on the vast majority of the agency’s top-tier accounts, including 5 gum, Altoids, Orbit, Aleve, One-A-Day and Illinois Lottery. Her colleagues recently recognized DeJesu for her boundless enthusiasm and creativity by granting her one of the agency’s “Energy Awards.” DeJesu cut her advertising teeth with an internship at Dimassimo Goldstein (now DIGO Brands) while studying at University at Buffalo. She managed to make waves from the start by launching one•in•five, a public awareness campaign for herpes that garnered a flurry of regional media attention. She placed large red dots on every fifth step leading to the Student Union, every fifth tile on one of the campus’ landmark buildings, every fifth seat in the lecture halls, etc. It was the first of her projects that showcased a typically private subject matter in a way that the viewer wouldn’t recognize immediately, which has become a common theme in her personal work. After graduating in 2008 with a degree in Advertising Art Direction and concentration in Graphic Design, she went to TheMissionNYC to bolster her portfolio with more big idea campaigns. She then landed gigs with Hill Holiday and Jack Morton, working on the Verizon account for both shops. “After spending 90 seconds with her, you’ll know why she’s a rising star among her peers,” says Rutledge, who is also DeJesu’s supervisor. “As an art director, she doesn’t just shine, she sparkles. She’ll design and conceptualize her way through any challenge that’s put in front of her. She’s got such a tenacious grip on doing great work that she never, ever, ever has to surrender to that corrupt, wily thing called compromise. But, there’s not an ounce of entitlement in her. Jackie is determination and grit - laced with passion, energy, and a few splashes of poise and grace. Her ideas have the same passion. They sparkle like she does.” In her free time, DeJesu enjoys singing Broadway show tunes at the top of her lungs and continuing her search for the most delicious cupcake in America, going to spin classes to burn off the unfortunate side effects of that search. What higher aspiration is there in this world? http://cargocollective.com/jacquelyndejesu/ALTOIDS-1 http://cargocollective.com/jacquelyndejesu/following/jacquelyndejesu/ALTOIDS-1 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 06:50:12 +0000 Jacquelyn De Jesu 2190053 We contributed to the much talked about Altoids Hall of Curiosity, a showcase of quirky and curiously strong artifacts throughout the course of history. You can bid on your favorite items on eBay and those not for sale can be found hidden around the city. We helped concept some of the curiosities for the project as well as research and antique hunt for the pieces to bring them to life. Our favorite being the shrunken head, with various others rolling out in the upcoming weeks. It got a creepy and weird...and we liked it.

I walk the streets, mostly while traveling. Whenever I find someone interesting I ask them to fill out a series of personal questions and take thier picture. They keep the side with the questions, and I jumble the one word answers for a type treatment over their portrait. I like to think of it as being completely exposed behind a black curtain.
