What is the mouth-piece of our culture saying about women?

Greenrock: Bring Your Own Bag and Bottle Campaign

Proverb designed a "Bring Your Own Bag and Bottle" campaign to promote sustainable living in Bermuda. High impact, low budget products extended the campaign beyond traditional media and transformed consumers into ambassadors of the charity's mission. The promotion conveyed the environmental implications of waste and overuse, and gave consumers and retailers a chance to take positive steps.

Informed by temples and noodles, the logo for this pan-Asian diner fuses disparate influences to form a funky Chinese diner, a novel concept. The Myers + Chang ads appeal to a young and price sensitive demographic, conveying the restaurant's irreverent attitude and aesthetic. The signage implements inexpensive materials in inventive ways, using cut vinyl in an unexpected and impactful fashion.

What is the mouth-piece of our culture saying about women?

Check out the trailer above for the film Misrepresentation, a contender for the Sundance Film Festival 2011. Misrepresentation, or is it Miss Representation, explores the impact the media has had on the ideals, expectations, and perceptions of women.

The film documents the shocking statistics that misrepresent women of power in government, business, and showbusiness. With interviews from women of ages, cultures, and prominence, the film intertwines the media's harsh perceptions and reality.

Miss Representation will be premiering on the television channel OWN on October 20th and various screenings have been scheduled both in the U.S. and internationally.

Upcoming screenings in the Boston area include:
Tuesday, Oct. 25, 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
