Dallas Cowboys Merchandising and 289c Collegiate Apparel have selected J&S to handle advertising duties for all Texas Longhorns authentic merchandise. The merchandising leg of America’s Team became the first and only Master Licensor for all University of Texas apparel and merchandise beginning Summer 2016. TV and Radio will run during Blue Star Media Productions like The Jerry Jones Show and The Jason Garrett show, and print and interactive work will appear in conjunction with retailers like Texas Co-Op, Academy and Dick’s Sporting Goods among others. The Longhorn football team was ranked the #1 most valuable team of 2015 at $152 million.

Mark Clayton was an All-American at OU, setting the single season record for receptions, TDs and receiving yards while going on to set the school’s receiving yards record with 3,241. His success carried over to the NFL, where he played six seasons for the Baltimore Ravens and St. Louis Rams. During pre-game warmups, Mark’s headphones kept falling off his head, which inspired him to create the first over-ear headphone that doesn’t slip. The Kickstarter brand has been featured on Forbes, USA Today and MSNBC, and J&S has been selected to take it national.

Jardine’s has been producing quality Texas foods since 1979. You could say their recipes are genuinely Texan, as the Chisholm Trail actually begins on their property in Buda, Texas. The company known for legendary salsas was expanding into the evolving Taco Sauce category and tasked J&S with adding a little spice to their new packaging. The new product with our Tex-meets-Mex design will be on grocery shelves nationally in late Spring.

We’re beyond proud of the hard work our teams put into the work recognized and rewarded at the 54th Annual AAF Dallas American Advertising Awards. It paid off in a big way, with our crew bringing home 18 awards for 6 different clients. Way to go, Team! 

LogoLounge is the one of the most respected and best-selling logo design book series in the world, so we were thrilled when our Cinco de Mayo logo for On The Border was recognized by the publication.

Since then, nearly 22,000 submissions were reviewed by an expert panel. The Cinco logo was among just 2000 of the world’s top logos that will be featured in the Volume 9 “Logo Master” edition.

Hypnotic Donuts, Dallas’ original craft donut shop, is taking sugar highs to new heights with its newest venture. J&S has created the new logo for Hypnotic Emporium, the 1950s style ice cream parlor, craft soda fountain and candy shoppe. James and Amy St. Peter open  East Dallas’s latest sweet stop in late February. 

The youngest business owner in Sanger, Texas has hired J&S as his first ad agency. It just so happens that Blake Pyron is also the only business owner in the state of Texas with Down Syndrome. The former Prom King and honorary captain of the high school football team plans to open a snow cone stand, “Blake’s Snow Shack” on Mother’s Day weekend.

This year’s AAF Dallas award-show thematic is the “Fantasy ADDYs.” Agencies selected “players” from other Dallas agencies they predicted would score big awards, thus earning them points in the competition. Owner Chris Sekin was among a handful of Dallas creatives selected to appear in promotional videos and social media posts for the event. Fifteen of our All Stars were selected by 12 different agencies with their First Round picks. We’re preparing to taste victory at the show on February 18th.

Earlier this year, our spec spot for Sharp’s Non-Alcoholic Beer was selected for production by Liberal Media and Charlie Uniform Tango for their “Flex Your Specs” initiative. The produced spot went on to be featured by Shoot Magazine in April as a “Best Spot You’ll Likely Never See.” As the year comes to a close, the spot has now been recognized as a Top 10 Best Work of the Year, and the #2 Best Spec of the Year in Shoot Magazine’s “2015 Best Creative Content Through Our Lens” Feature.

J&S has been fortunate enough to get to know Hypnotic Donut’s James and Amy St. Peter through our mutual involvement with Carry The Load and Meat Fight. The all-around good people and owners of Dallas’ original craft donut shop stayed awake past noon and collaborated with us on some new donut work. And we’re also working on much-anticipated opening of the new Hypnotic Emporium ice cream shoppe. You’ve got to get up pretty early in the morning to find a better assignment than these.

 

Former Navy Midshipmen, quarterback and US Navy SEAL Stephen Holley feels at home in the field. Tours in Iraq, Southeast Asia and other far-flung locations around the world gave him unique insight into how the function and placement of gear can make the utmost difference when seconds matter most. J&S is proud to work with the Carry The Load co-founder in launching his new intuitive hunting gear company Sixsite – the first American-made hunting gear with a  frogman’s mentality forged into its very fabric.

It’s on like filet mignon. J&S is proud to have gone another round with Meat Fight, providing advertising and social media for the highly anticipated Texas BBQ competition featuring 16 of Dallas’ celebrity chefs. Created by Dallas Observer food columnist Alice Laussade, the 2014 event raised a record $100,000. This year’s 6th Annual event TKO’d that number, bringing in $150,000 for the National MS Society. The $95 General Admission and $175 VIP tickets sold out in under one hour.
