I saw a NY agency steal one of my spec student ideas. I knew they did it because my analytics showed they were on my website quite a bit before they released it. To add insult to injury the stole some design on my website for their corporate website.
Happens all the time. Sometimes it's subconscious, like they forgot where they saw it, but a lot of the time the attitude is "ideas get stolen, it's happened to us all, just have more ideas.'
CW1....sure, but when I see them repeated visit the brand page on my site and then see they release the same idea months later, it sure seems suspicious.
An agency stole my idea 100%. I interviewed with the ECD. About eight months later, I saw my idea on their website. Oddly, he didn’t think I was good enough to work at the agency, but my ideas was good enough to win them a couple of shitty awards. I don’t get it
AD1 you are literally in the forum where something can be done. Which agency? Which campaign?
They probably had a similar idea. It happens all the time
Happened to me and they won 6 Cannes Lions with my student work. Nothing could be done, or else we burn our names for being “cry babies"
Happens
I will say the idea I had stolen wasn’t close to winning awards, so I guess there’s that.
