Mo'lest TBWA\
Posted 05.11.2011 @ 12.55PM
I thought I'd share my latest project created by TBWA\ Singapore & TEQUILA\. If you have a moment, please share it with others. Our goal is to raise awareness and cash in Singapore for research into Prostate Cancer for Singhealth.
We've turned the idea of the Mo and Movember on its head and are asking people to reverse engineer the beard.
We, the agency, grow beards for 3 weeks and the world gets to auction for the right to Mo'lest us for the last week with any design they wish us to wear (if they are the winning bidder). There is one get out clause. If the Mo'lestee doesn't want to wear half a beard or much worse on his face he has the option to match the final $$$ tally and only suffer the humiliation for 24 hours. We have an expert precision barber at the ready for November the 24th, the official shave day, where our canvases will be crafted.
All bids go to Singhealth, our charity for prostate cancer in Singapore.

Thom Yorke poster (eBay)
Posted 14.12.2010 @ 2.21PM
Apologies in advance for the spam-like post but I figured creatives like myself like Thom Yorke/Radiohead so could be interested in this one:
There's 1 day left on my Ltd Edition framed poster of Thom Yorke from 2004 Q Mag on eBay.
It's still only at 0.99. Grab a hot one for next to nowt.
The image is a heavily manipulated shot of Yorke by celebrity music photographer James Dimmock:

@Scratchy I have a 7D and cannot recommend enough. It is way way better than the 550D or 60D. Stretch to it.

@oz - Thanks mate, I left out a couple of things in that post, I want to explore workplace culture in further detail but it turns out it could be an article in itself!
@Dan - As noftus has said, 10% adds up over time. While BAS may be a headache it actually helps to understand your finances which is a valuable skill.
@Nick - Have a look at the calculator on Freelance Switch. Your overheads and circumstances may be different to mine. But $50-65 p/h for digital seems a bit low, closer to mid-level rates.
