February Luncheon - Super Bowl Ad Panel

This year, the AMA is joining that conversation... and giving you an opportunity to voice your opinion! Join us for our February luncheon as we gather Denver's finest advertising and production talent for our first-ever Super Bowl Ad Panel. Expert panelists will give us their un-edited take on this year's commercial extravaganza, as well as elicit lively and opinionated testimonial from the crowd. It's an event that's already getting a lot of buzz, and one that you won't want to miss. Join us for the event of the season!

Panelists include:

Patrick Sullivan, Creative Director, The Integer Group \TBWA

A native of Baltimore, Maryland, Patrick’s dreams of watching the Ravens win a second Super Bowl were most recently and horribly squashed. (He's still in denial).

When he's not belly-aching about lousy field goal kicking in the playoffs, Patrick focuses his creative energy on developing award-winning brand and retail campaigns for the likes of Colorado Native, Coors Light, Coors Banquet, Mountain Dew, Sierra Mist, Ford Motor Company, Taco Bell, ESPN, the Denver Nuggets, Good Times Burgers, Qdoba Mexican Grill, among others.

Robin Bond, Founder & Executive Producer/Writer, Robin Bond Media

Robin Bond Media is a boutique of passionate filmmakers who love good old-fashioned storytelling. Leading the team is Executive Producer Robin Bond, who started doing this video thing in the late '80s when tapes were big, VCRs were cool, and few people really understood WHY they would need a video. Since then, she and her illustrious team have worked with Fortune 500 companies, broadcast television outlets, ad agencies, non-profits, government agencies and PR firms. Along the way, they've picked up Emmy's, Telly's, compliments and friends. 

Andrew McGuire, Creative Director at Impossible

Andrew was a hybrid talent long before it was trendy. Recently joining Impossible fresh off a seven year stint with Saatchi & Saatchi’s Team One in Los Angeles where he worked with Lexus, The Ritz-Carlton, Flexjet, and Belkin, he brings his digital, traditional and content production chops back to his home state of Colorado. Before advertising, he was a television producer and a creative director for a few start-ups. He is a recognized strategic and entrepreneurial thinker, but his most-prized accomplishments include co-producing his beautiful twin daughters with his wife of seven years.

A self-proclaimed social media junkie, Dayna has led social media strategy and execution for national consumer brands. Her keen eye for metrics and measurement helps her connect online engagement to business goals. From creating digital crisis communication plans to serving as the day-to-day voice behind the brand, Dayna has helped clients navigate this new world of online communication.
