What’s an ad you can’t stop thinking about? 👀

The commercial you still remember years later.
The campaign you wish you’d made.
The billboard that stopped you in your tracks.
The brand film that gave you chills.
Or the one that just made you think: Damn, that’s good.

Welcome to ADSPIRATIONS!

On October 22, AAF Seattle + Offbeat Films are bringing Seattle’s creative community together to do something we don’t get enough time to do: Talk about the work simply because we love the work.

No panels. No presentations. No right answers.

We’ll watch a curated collection of creative work, hear why people chose it, and then get into it together. What works? What doesn’t? Why is it memorable? Would it work today? What would you change?

💡 Want to share something that inspires you?
When you register, you’ll have the option to submit an ad or piece of creative work for consideration.

Don’t have anything to submit? Come anyway! Submissions are encouraged, but absolutely not required to attend.

Come to watch. Come to discuss. Come to discover something new. Come meet Seattle’s creative community.

📅 OCT 22
⏰ 5:30–7:30 PM
📍 Seattle
🎟️ Members + guests welcome - Link in bio

Come with an ad—or don’t. Come with an opinion. Leave inspired.

Hosted by AAF Seattle
Co-hosted + sponsored by Offbeat Films Offbeat Films

Meet Wyatt Curtiss ⭐️ With a background in copywriting, strategy, account management and excessive consumption of science fiction, Wyatt leads C+C’s creative team in developing campaigns that deliver big results and shiny hardware.

Clients who love his work include the Washington State Dept. of Health, Star One Credit Union, ENERGY STAR and King County Metro. Non-clients who would hate his work include big banks and the coal lobby.

He’s also the only C+C employee to ever break a window with a T-shirt cannon. Reminding him of that incident keeps him grounded.

Show some love in the comments!
