Critical Mass Appoints Jason Theodor Creative Director

Theodor served as Interactive Creative Director at Ogilvy and MacLaren McCann prior to joining Critical Mass. He played an integral role in both Yahoo!'s global re-branding and Dove Evolution's viral campaign. He also started his own online consultancy specializing in idea generation for marketing, branding, and creativity, working with such agencies as Saatchi and Saatchi, JWP, Ogilvy andMather, and Idea Couture.

Previously, Theodor led online branding initiatives for Yahoo!, Dove, General Motors, Rogers, Cisco, American Express, IBM, Mattel, Microsoft, Nestle, Sony, and other Fortune 500 companies.

The Canadian Marketing Association (CMA) has repeatedly recognized Theodor's work. He received the 2007 CMA Award for Yahoo!Canada's "Dance Dance Monkey" and the 2005 CMA Award for New Media: E-Mail for General Motors of Canada Limited's "Interchange."

Jason also authors the blogs, 1% (1over100.com) and ThereIsNoBox.ca (thereisnobox.wordpress.com), in addition to consulting, lecturing, and driving workshops on brainstorming techniques and creativity.

"Jason brings a wealth of experience in the converging worlds of advertising, marketing, and Web 2.0," said Dianne Wilkins, Chief Executive Officer of Critical Mass. "We expect that our clients' campaigns will benefit from his creativity, forward thinking and passion for the online channel."
