ATTIK HIRES AWARD-WINNING ART DIRECTOR 
RON LIM AS ASSOCIATE CREATIVE DIRECTOR

SAN FRANCISCO – (Aug. 2, 2006) – Global creative agency ATTIK (www.attik.com) today announced the hiring of award-winning art director Ron Lim in the new role of associate creative director.  Lim joins ATTIK’s San Francisco staff immediately, and the announcement was made by Simon Needham, ATTIK’s co-founder and group creative director. 

“Earlier this year, Ron was brought in by creative director Wayne Hanson to work with us on Scion and AOL/Moviefone projects,” Needham said.  “Our campaign work tends to be anything but straightforward... and Ron gets that.  He's contemporary in the way he thinks and has a thorough understanding of youth culture.”

At the end of 2005, to pursue freelance opportunities with ATTIK, Lim ended his five-year tenure as senior art director for Foote, Cone & Belding, San Francisco – a position he held for more than five years.  As part of FCB’s team, his broadcast and print campaigns for leading brands including Amazon.com, Kikkoman, Sega, Taco Bell and Zima earned numerous honors, including London International Advertising and One Show Awards.  Prior to that, he spent nearly two years in the senior art director role with San Francisco’s McCann-Erickson, contributing to numerous B2B and B2C campaigns for Microsoft and SGI, among many others.  To date, his work has also been recognized in the Addy, British Design & Art Direction, Cannes Lion, Clio, Effie, New York Festivals and Telly awards, among many others.

“I joined ATTIK because I liked the idea of working for a small independent shop,” Lim said.  “My entire career has been spent at agencies owned by holding companies, and I relished the chance to actually work with the founder of the company.  While looking ahead to more work on the Scion, Moviefone and AOL campaigns, I'm psyched about leading a very smart team and getting them excited about building brands.”
