April 2010 Creative Artist Spotlight!

Spring is here, and so is another month to showcase some of the most talented creative artist around the world.  These artists are chosen by the makemealive team each month.  The purpose is to spotlight inspiration and creative people or studios pushing our industry.   With the development of the internet our industry has opened up dramatically.  Artists from all over the world are connecting with brands from all over the world.  It has been an interesting evolution and we are glad to see it open up globally.  We are also taking submissions for review.  If you have some fresh work that you want to share with us.  We would love to see it.  Send to hello@makemealive.com

Let’s dive into it……

First we have design & art boutique POGO, from Buenos Aires, Argentina.  The studio was founded in 2008 by Ardi and Pampa.  Collectively, they have worked with some large clients including MTV and Adidas.  A creative eye to step outside boundaries and  take risks with there art direction.  While being extremely creative they maintain quality composition. Actually, I think this is the first studio we have done a spotlight on. So congrats to POGO!
