Who are Ed and Lew?

It all began with an idea, and that idea was to work together. That happened in 2006 where we (Ed Cole and Lewis Bostrand-Mooney) met on the Watford ad course. And like all good ideas, this one had legs, four of them in fact, and they carried us forward on our journey through Ad land.

After leaving sunny Watford, we discovered we’d won the Diageo Scholarship for our portfolio. This earned us the opportunity to work at three of the great ad agencies, Mother, AMV and BBH, for a year’s worth of work placements.

We were then hired at BBH and, working in the presence of some of the industries greatest ad folk, we learned the tools we needed to master the craft of ad smithery… and how not to be a tool.

After 8 years at BBH, in 2015 we decided to take our smithery skills to Lucky Generals where we’re been honing our creative director skills ever since.

Below are a few more lovely snaps of us toiling at the coal face of consumerism. Enjoy.
