Very Clever Creates Eccentric Art Direction for Incredible Brands
We can do weird. It's is our speciality. Weird creates great art, but we want to strike a chord. Very Clever is a creative collective that specializes in finding that sweet spot of weird and what resonates with viewers. Atlanta based art director Tim Lampe formed the art direction team of Very Clever in 2015 along with partner John Spannos. Early in our creative exploration, we found the images that spoke volumes were ones that gave you a ping of emotion within a few seconds of interacting with them. You barely get 2 seconds of people's attention anymore, so we accept the challenge to make our images give you a lightning reaction right away. Do all consumers love broccoli? Probably not. Do all consumers love Ice Cream? Without a doubt.
Our team brings years of creative and brand experience to the table. They have collaborated on various projects and are available together or separately for photo-based projects.
