All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this.

Casado in Brazil is called feijoada, and that was our first meal when we arrived in Copacabana for the Wave Festival. With an air of the Carlton in Cannes, the Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro is the perfect setting for the [...]
At Tribu DDB Costa Rica we have decided not to receive new accounts, at least for the remainder of the first half of the year. However, we are already considering extending this measure to the third quarter of the year. The reason? [...]

Throughout the last few years we have enjoyed Sprite’s line of communication in its approach to the region’s youth. Today, Sunday is perhaps a good day to let us entertain ourselves and enjoy their most recent pieces. It’s a wonder when an [...]
Madre presented us with this idea exploited to the fullest. It’s a perfectly well-told story, masterful audio and a special effects solution that manages to engage, entertain and connect with the Mortgage Bank. They are the kind of productions that intimidate and [...]
