Andrew Chisholm is currently a Toronto-based Creative Director.

Andrew does not usually refer to himself in the third person, but in this case it allows Andrew to talk about his accomplishments in a way that doesn’t seem quite as braggadocious because the effect is that someone else is saying it.


 

For the last year or so, he’s been splitting his remote screen time between Disney in LA and Piro in NY while trying his hardest not to say he’s virtually “bi-coastal” when asked.

A year earlier, he was at Juliet Creative trying to find meaning with Jägermeister and Flula Borg, but not quite in the way that sounds.


 

Prior to his present location, Andrew spent 8 years physically in New York where he also did some things. More specifically, he spent time as a Creative Director on IKEA working on things that took nearly that amount of time to listen through.


 

He helped gamify the joys of New York apartment living. 


 

And was never going to let a pandemic get in the way of a KIKI.

 

 

He helped non-morning people become less so.


 

Got a lot of people excited for products that didn’t exist.


 

And also for ones that did.


 

When not working for a Swedish home goods company, he helped make 86 million Americans aware of their risk of diabetes by simply counting on their fingers.


 

And a year later by watching hedgehogs.


 

After receiving much acclaim from juries, news sites and non-humans,

his work for American Express and Apple Pay elicited a rumored “thumbs up” from human Martin Scorcese. Andrew heard about this third-hand in an edit suite.


 

Choosing not to retire on that career highlight, Andrew pressed on determined to show that he not only cared about what the luminary classes thought, but also results. Some years later in Q2 ‘19, this spot for The UPS Store was the Best Overall Ad on Creative Attention Score according to this pdf.


 

But in order to complete his own personal triple crown, he wanted to infuse his love of travel into his work. So, to get young people to Visit Great Britain, a campaign was launched telling British celebrities that they weren’t really famous until they had made it in America.
