People on the Move

Young & Laramore (Y&L) has hired Kyle Klinger as sr. art director, and Jane Brannen and Aiden McKiernan as writers. 

Before joining the Indianapolis-based creative agency, Klinger was at 180LA where he worked with such clients as Expedia, Pepsi, HP, and The Motion Picture Academy. Throughout his career he worked with many leading brands including Sony, Mitsubishi, Adidas, Procter & Gamble, and Match.com. At Y&L, Klinger will work with clients including KraftMaid Cabinetry.
 
Brannen will be working with clients including Brizo Faucets and KraftMaid Cabinetry at Y&L. Prior to joining the agency, she worked at Pivot Marketing with local brands including Visit Bloomington, Arts Council of Indianapolis, and the Indiana Donor Network.
 
McKiernan will be working with clients including Schlage and Farm Bureau Insurance at Y&L. Before joining the team, McKiernan worked at VSA Partners, Detroit, where he worked with brands including Harley-Davidson, Cleveland Clinic, Cache Valley Cheese and Alibaba.  

Camp+King (C+K) has added editor Prav Potu, designer Joey Faccio and visual designer Justin Marimon to its ensemble of talent.
 
Potu has worked on everything from commercial projects to documentary films. He has had a busy freelance career for the past four years editing for AKQA, Eleven Inc., West SF and several other local agencies. From 2011 to 2013, he was editor at BBDO San Francisco, where he filmed and edited content, prepared agency content for pitches and created award case studies.
 
After graduating from Ringling College of Art and Design as its trustee scholar, Faccio moved west to pursue ad/design agency and freelance opportunities. Five years later, Faccio has a portfolio filled with designs for clients such as Toyota, Under Armour, MTV Networks, Microsoft, ABC, Bacardi, Lexus and G-Eazy.  
 
Marimon joins C+K after a recent move to the Bay Area from the Midwest. A multi-talented designer with four-plus years of experience, he has worked with industrial designers, branding studios and commercial photographers to create iconic imagery and design solutions. Marimon is passionate about exploring new mediums and hopes to expand his skills to include 3D rendering and animation.
 
“We’re stoked to have Joey, Justin and Prav on board. They each bring a skill set that’ll elevate the work we do here at C+K,” said creative director Rikesh Lal.

Matt Antonello and Noel Fenn have joined the Toronto office of FCB Canada as group creative directors. The moves reflect a growth spurt at FCB that included a number of client wins (most recently Ontario Tourism), the expansion of the creative department and the promotion of Nancy Crimi-Lamanna and Jeff Hilts to chief creative officers late last summer. 

“With our move into the CCO role, we wanted to put into place a creative structure that keeps us focused on elevating our creative product on a day-to-day basis,” said Crimi-Lamanna. “In January, we promoted Jeremiah McNama and Andrew MacPhee to group creative directors and with the addition of Matt and Noel, we’ve rounded out a senior creative leadership team that will help us continue to build on our momentum.” 

Antonello got his start as a writer and was most recently creative director with Saatchi & Saatchi. During his time there, The Gay Sweater Project earned a shelf-full of creative hardware including The Impact Award at the D&AD awards. Earlier in his career at DDB, he won two Cannes Lions for Cialis “Mustang” and Best of the Best at the CMAs for Subaru “Carwash.”

Fenn got his start as a designer and art director and was most recently at Zulu Alpha Kilo as associate creative director. Like Antonello, Fenn has a long list of international and domestic awards on his resume. At Zulu Alpha Kilo he worked on Cineplex’s much loved “Lily and the Snowman” and 1903 | A Harley-Davidson Café. Earlier in his career he earned One Show, Effie and Clio acclaim for his work on IKEA’s Human Coupons. 

72andSunny Amsterdam has recently promoted Simone Moessinger to creative director. She will continue to help 72andSunny Amsterdam dig deeper to deliver progressive work that works across borders and deep in markets with partners such as Axe, Google, HeForShe, adidas, Bugaboo. Moessinger will report to executive creative directors Carlo Cavallone and Stuart Harkness.

Swiss-American Moessinger grew up between Europe and the U.S., and is fluent in six different languages. With over 10 years of experience, Moessinger has worked for W+K in Portland, London and Amsterdam, creating work for Nike and ESPN, and then Anomaly NY, where she developed work for brands such as Converse, Nike, Umbro and Budweiser. 

In 2015, Moessinger joined 72andSunny Amsterdam’s creative team, and since then has helped produce impactful, global work for Google, Benetton and Samsung. She is particularly proud of the work she developed for Samsung for the 2016 Youth Olympic games, which gave  a voice to young athletes who often feel alone, encouraging them to pursue their dreams.
