Hi. I'm Tim Brunelle. I've been at the forefront of marketing innovation and storytelling since . I've developed brand strategy, directed films, written and directed advertising and design as well as user experience for marketers including PwC, Thrivent, Harley-Davidson, Goodyear, Porsche, Anheuser-Busch, M, Sears, Ameriprise and MetLife. I spent eight years helping lead Volkswagens Drivers wanted campaign in North America. My primary strength is telling stories -- then integrating them across the landscape of media, platforms and technologies. I am fluent across disciplines. (About the only thing I don't do is server-side coding.) I translate and empower. That's the vast majority of my work today. Business strategy to marketing strategy to creative briefing. Design thinking to interactive to broadcast to print to 'content' to events - and back again. Writing for and across all of it. For the past year I've been freelancing, mostly for Crispin Porter Bogusky and Team Detroit. In the past I've worked with Carmichael Lynch, Ogilvy, Mullen, Arnold, McKinney, HeaterEasdon and TBWA. In I co-founded Hello Viking. I am a co-owner and the Creative Director of BannerPalooza, the online banner ad production shop. And I was a partner in the marketing software firm Curation Station. Now I'm a Creative Director at BBDO Minneapolis. I've been fortunate to collaborate and see our work win awards One Show Interactive Best of Show, several Gold Pencils the Grand Clio, Cannes Grand Prix, the Grand Andy, London International Advertising Awards Grand Prize for Websites, DAD Featured, AICP Finalist and inclusion in three Communication Arts Interactive Annuals. One project I worked on was recognized by the One Club as a hallmark of The First Decade of Interactive Advertising. I also serve as President of the -member executive board of the , member Minnesota Interactive Marketing Association.
