Great brief for something that gets forgotten about a lot these days but is something we all know and love.
Fantastic entries with great ideas in them but it's a no-brainer today. Rich Edwards @collect_studio wins with his campaign for 'every bag tells a story'. This needs to be made.
What do you all think?
Also, anyone at Salford Uni's Creative Degree Show tonight? Let us know and come and say hi.

Thank You
Thank You:
Today we passed 3000 followers on our Twitter feed.
We value every single one of you and just wanted to say a special thank you for your continued support and contribution to our project. We couldn't do it without you.
During the last few months we have seen a dramatic improvement in the quality of the ideas that are sent in. Some of the winners are of award-winning standard. For this reason we are looking into incorporating an award ceremony into our One Minute Briefs event.
We want to make this event happen this year. We will be hiring out a good old fashioned pub with plenty of beer for us all along with lots of live one minute competitions, live music, one minute book crits, one minute drink downing tournaments and awards for the best work we have received this year. We think it will be brilliant. It will be held in Manchester. We need numbers so if you can tweet us @OneMinuteBriefs or even better e-mail us at interest@bankofcreativity.co.uk with your interest then we can get a preliminary list together. If we get enough we will go ahead and do it. Creatives, students, friends etc are all welcome so tell everyone about it and let us know!!
We are also at D&AD New Blood in a few weeks so if you're going. Please let us know as we'd love to feature you at our stand.
The image below was sent in to us as part of today's brief to advertise Manchester by David Webb @Wavey_Gravy and, although it didn't win, we loved it as it shows a great appreciation for what we are trying to do. We believe that One Minute Briefs can continue to help people improve their creative instinct and their work so let's all keep up the good work and get it to 4000 soon!
Thanks again!
Nick and James

Shane Jones @dognbonesjones with 'Our Kid' really nice take on our slang which uses a place you might like to visit too.
Dave Farthing @dave_farthing for 'Mad for I.T.' which is an amazing true fact that we have in Manchester with the Oasis connotation too.

Special One Minute Brief category WINNER at the Chip Shop Awards: Advertise the new Oscar Pistorius range from Nike
Special One Minute Brief category WINNER at the Chip Shop Awards:
Advertise the new Oscar Pistorius range from Nike
So, after a difficult judging process from 600 entries down to 5 nominations, we went down to London to see the results of the One Minute Briefs category on Thursday night.
It was a great night set in the Ministry of Sound Club with a brilliant opening speech by Gordon Young which really reflected what we like to do at One Minute Briefs as we are all about great ideas and not being restricted. Then, of course, was the fantastic act from Abandoman before moving onto the results. There was some great work throughout and some lighthearted, funny yet effective work too. The Grand Prix piece was quite serious though and shows that the awards aren't just a joke.
At the end of the award section the One Minute Briefs #MicroChips category came up and the winner out of the 5 nominations was chosen by a clapometer which was a really good way of interacting with the audience. The overwhelming winner was the entry below produced by Dan Burns, a copywriter at BD Network, London.
It was great to see a true 'One Minute' entry win as this proves that the idea really is king.
The idea itself is a light-hearted quick response to a topical brief which isn't to be taken too seriously yet it is eyecatching and really stood out from the others by being different.
Due to it's quick nature it is a rough scamp but we think that this art direction makes it even better!
Also, the fact that BD Network had a wall full of One Minute Brief entries for this particular brief shows that by getting involved you can produce better ideas. Andy Thirsk, Dan's workmate at BD was also in the final 5.
It was great to catch up with Dan and the others. Top guys. We'll catch up for another drink soon! Well done to everyone who was nominated and to all 600 entries. The quality was amazing. Well done Dan too. The best out of 600. Not bad!
Yes, we got to hold it too! ;)
