It Is The Circle Of Life, But For Círculo Creativo

MIAMI, FL (January 23th, 2019) — Today the Círculo Creativo of the Hispanic Market in the United States released the new platform for its relaunch. Yes, you heard that right. Relaunch.

Círculo Creativo is a nonprofit founded in 1999 with the aim of promoting creative excellence and communication among professionals working in the U.S. Hispanic advertising market.

Círculo Creativo is open to advertising professionals or freelance creatives employed by a Hispanic advertising company or agency, PR company or agency, or media industry company in the United States. And advertising professionals or freelance creatives employed by a general market advertising company or agency, PR company or agency, media industry company, advertisers or in-house agencies in the United States who are of Latin American or Spanish origin.

Since our beginning, we have been striving to bridge the geographical gap that separates the advertising professionals in our market. That is why for the 2019 -2020 cycle, we have decided to go back to our roots and put all our energy into our original mission by promoting continuous interaction among creatives nationwide via programs and contests such as U.S. Hispanic Young Lions Competition & looking forward to be able to continue with the Not So Young Creatives Contest too.

We’ll continue to facilitate the community getting to know each other through virtual communication, continue offering education on the latest trends in the Industry, empowering the younger generations and not so young professionals out there with knowledge and networking; we’ll make sure fresh blood gets a chance to meet with the most internationally recognized creatives from the market through Círculo’s Fresh Ideas; a new initiative where students are able to present their books to active professionals. And, of course, keep offering job opportunities.

It’s time to unite creatives and make sure their circle grows like never before. Not to mention the partnerships that all members will be able to enjoy.  

How will Círculo Creativo achieve all this?

With you; the executive team member from Círculo Creativo, the three Co-Chairman: Luis Miguel Messianu, Creative Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Alma; Aldo Quevedo, Creative Principal at Richards/Lerma; Gustavo Lauría, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer at We Believers; and General Manager, Treasurer: Francisco Vargas, Executive Producer at Adictivo and Counselor: Bettina Abascal, Director at Momentum Reps; and a group of committed creatives who will be leading this evolution.

Please welcome Círculo Creativo’s seven regional leaders:
Serge Flores – Executive Creative Director at LatinWorks in Austin.
Javier Osorio – Freelance Creative Director in Chicago
Flor Leibaschoff – Group Creative Director at Richards/Lerma in Dallas
Fernando Osuna – Chief Creative Officer at Lopez Negrete Communications in Houston
Elías Weinstock – Chief Creative Officer at Casanova//McCann in Los Angeles
Iván Calle – Vice President, Executive Creative Director at Zubi Advertising in Miami.
Mauricio Galván – Creative Director at Anomaly in New York

They will be working closely together to shorten the distances between their regions.

When we asked our regional leaders to provide quotes all of them agreed and mentioned;

"This new Círculo is all about inclusion, working together to build a community. Our commitment to reach common goals and understand the unique attributes of each region will be the main focus. Elevating our way of thinking and tackling hurdles with a unique approach that will yield results for all members.”

 “Being spread out in several cities across the country can be a weakness or a strength for our industry. This structure of Círculo Creativo makes it a strength, leveraging all the talent that exists in each city.”

“This new structure better reflects the present situation of our industry, while setting us up to respond to the future of it as well.” 

We are ready to get this Círculo rolling. One. More. Time. It’s been a while. And we are as eager and enthusiastic as the first day in 1999. Twenty years, and there is still so much to work on. We hope you can come and roll with us. Together, this can be done.

So on February 7 at 6:30 p.m. CT, all 7 regions will kick off this renewal with a simultaneous event – “Círculo Creativo: one week after the Super Bowl”. Círculo Creativo will have 3-4 panelists per city and will discuss the top ten spots from the biggest day of the year for advertisers.

This event will be free for members and non-members. We truly hope to see y’all there.

#ElNuevoCírculo

Reset del Círculo Creativo Hispano de EE.UU.

El Círculo Creativo Hispano de EE.UU. anuncia su relanzamiento con el objetivo de elevar el nivel creativo del mercado hispano en primer lugar y ser mucho más representativo.

Dentro de los cambios que se realizarán, se eliminará la figura de Presidente para ser reemplazada por la de representantes locales en Florida, Texas, Nueva York, Illinois y California.

En los próximos días el Circulo invitará a todos sus miembros a enviar propuestas para postularse a ser elegidos en cada una de las regiones.

A su vez, también se producirán cambios en el board. En lugar de estar solo compuesto por ex presidentes, se invitará a los CCO de las agencias más grandes del mercado que hasta el momento no son parte.

El board del Circulo estará encabezado por tres Co Chairmans: Aldo Quevedo de Richards/Lerma, Gustavo Lauría de We Believers y Luis Miguel Messianu de ALMA.

 Francisco Vargas, quien se desempeña como General Manager asume nuevas funciones como Tesorero.

 

DECLARACIONES DE LOS CO-CHAIRMANS:

“Llegó el momento de ser más inclusivos que nunca, estando presentes a nivel local durante todo el año y creando herramientas que ayuden a elevar el trabajo que hacen las agencias y productoras” Gustavo Lauria, Co Chairman de Circulo y CCO de We Believers

“Estamos viviendo un momento peculiar para las agencias Multiculturales y hoy más que nunca es momento de unirnos y trabajar juntos y de manera desinteresada hacia el objetivo original del Círculo Creativo: ¡ayudar a elevar el nivel creativo y el talento de nuestras agencias! ¡Aldo, Gustavo y yo hemos trabajado mucho para que sea así y hoy estamos renovando nuestro compromiso!” Luis Miguel Messianu, Co Chairman de Circulo y CEO de Alma.

“Estados Unidos tiene una particularidad única en la región: toda la industria esta fragmentada por todo el país, no es como México, Argentina o Colombia en donde la mayoría de las agencias están concentradas en una o dos ciudades. Y por eso es muy importante que el Círculo sirva de conexión para elevar el nivel creativo” dijo Aldo Quevedo, Co Chairman del Circulo, Principal y ECD de Richards/Lerma en Dallas.

The Circulo Creativo has today announced María "Maru" Bernal, VP Creative Director at Lápiz, and Norberto "Norbi" Zylberberg, CCO & Founder at Socialisssima, as the entity’s new Vice Presidents starting in August 14th.

Maru and Norbi have been part of Circulo since 2004 and 2003 respectively, as active members of the entity. According to Ciro Sarmiento, president of Círculo Creativo and CCO of Dieste Inc. the VPs were selected based on experience in the U.S. Hispanic market, the value they bring to their agencies, businesses and clients, not to mention their extensive list of accolades over the years.

“Maru and Norbi will help us carry the vision of our organization by bringing fresh ideas that can broaden el Circulo’s activities throughout the year. Gustavo, the board and myself, we are thrilled to have them onboard for the next 2 years", says Sarmiento.

The new VPs will be working together to structure a plan of activities for 2018-2019, including training activities, recruiting new members and promoting diversity within Circulo members. They both will serve as VPs of Circulo till 2019.
 

Learn more about our new VPs: 

María "Maru" Bernal

Maria “Maru” Bernal: "I’m really excited to become a VP for the USH Creative Circle. Having the opportunity to work with people I’ve known for years, as well as with amazing new talent across all of our agencies, is priceless for me. One thing I love about our market is that we continuously evolve, but there is one thing that has remained the same: the power of our voice when we come together.

Let’s continue bringing this power everywhere we go, we have gone far already, but as Hispanics in the US., we know we can always go further."

 María Bernal (Maru) joined Lápiz / Leo Burnett in 2002 and is currently VP Creative Director for the Allstate insurance, Purina USH, Kellogg’s and UnitedHealthcare accounts at Lapiz.

Originally from Mexico, María started her career as a graphic designer and photographer, working in editorial design for Mexican magazines.

She began her advertising career about 20 years ago in a small advertising firm in Mexico City and then as an Art Director ACD at Leo Burnett Mexico working on some P&G brands as well as Kellogg’s and Phillip Morris. She was also part of the team that brought the Corona beer brand to Leo Burnett Mexico.

In 2002, Maru moves to Chicago and joins the creative department at Lapiz / Leo Burnett to work with the Disney, McDonald’s, Kellogg’s, Wrigley, Jack Daniel’s and Chase Bank brands. She became the P&G group Creative Director for the Pepto Bismol, Always, Bounty Charmin and Gain brands.

In 2005, María won the first Cannes Lion for the US Hispanic Market for the film category. Her work has also been awarded in the Radio, Print and Innovation categories at Cannes.

Her work has been recognized at D&AD, The One Show, Clio, LIA, New York Festivals, Kinsale Shark Awards, Epica, El Sol, FIAP, El Ojo de Iberoamérica, Effie Awards, Communication Arts, The Webby Awards and Lürzers Archive, among others.

Maru is a proud mom of 2 beautiful human beings and she is very thankful for her husband who has always been a huge supporter of her carrier.

 

Norbi Zylberberg

Norberto (Norbi) Zylberberg: "I’m glad to become VP  of  El Círculo Creativo and would love to work together with so many great professionals, friends and organizations with the main objective of expanding our reach, keep growing the Hispanic presence in the creative world and help shaping that "cutting edge voice" that is more needed than ever. Vayamos por más."

Norbi founded Socialisssima in Austin in September of 2016, following the trend of creative people and marketers who feel that this business is evolving like never before.

With 20+ years of experience in small, medium and large agencies in Argentina and the US, he has worked with Fortune500 Corporations, start-ups & tech, and service companies in multicultural and general markets; he has won creative awards in all major regional, national and international advertising festivals, as well as participated as lecturer and judge in places as diverse as Istanbul, Busan, Bilbao, Mexico, Miami, Madrid and Buenos Aires.

After finishing Marketing, Communications and Copywriting In Buenos Aires, he continued his education at Virginia VCU, Berlin School of Business, UCLA, HyperIsland and Georgetown University.

Convinced that social causes should be part of the DNA of every human being and corporation, he continues to push his creative efforts to aim for a better world every day. Please, don’t talk about soccer with him until Argentina wins the World Cup again.

Ciro Sarmiento: Conferencista de El Ojo 2017

El Ojo de Iberoamérica celebra sus primeros 20 años junto a la creatividad iberoamericana yanuncia a las brillantes mentes de la industria de la creatividad, el marketing y las comunicaciones a nivel mundial que serán parte de su destacado ciclo de conferencias, workshops y reconocimientos.

Con casi 20 años de experiencia en Estados Unidos y en Latinoamérica, Ciro Sarmiento, Chief Creative Officer de Dieste y Presidente del Círculo Creativo Hispano de Estados Unidos, es uno de los creativos más respetados de la industria. Su trabajo ha sido reconocido en los más grandes festivales del mundo y ha sido jurado en festivales de talla internacional como D&AD, Clio y El Ojo de Iberoamérica.

Inició su carrera de redactor en Ogilvy & Mather Colombia hasta liderar creativamente marcas globales como Motorola, GlaxoSmithKline y Coca-Cola. En el año 2008 regresó a Estados Unidos y trabajó en LatinWorks como Director Creativo para Bud Light, Domino’s Pizza y Skittles, fue en esta etapa donde la agencia fue reconocida por El Ojo de Iberoamérica en tres ocasiones, 2008, 2010 y 2011, por su labor creativo como responsables de las Mejores Piezas Locales para Radio y TV. En 2011, junto a Sergio Alcocer, consolidaron la agencia dentro del ranking de Ad Age al lado de agencias como Crispin Porter+Bogusky.  Y ese mismo año, Ciro logró lo que ningún creativo latino había logrado hasta la fecha: Ganar el primer León de Oro con una campaña para el mercado Hispano. De ahí los Oros se multiplicaron en El Ojo, Cannes, New York Festivals, London International Awards, entre otros, posicionando al mercado Hispano dentro del mapa de la industria publicitaria.

En 2012 se une a Leo Burnett en Chicago como Creative Director para P&G y Kellogg’s. En 2013 también recibe un arsenal de premios incluyendo el León de Cannes en la codiciada categoría Press para su cliente Procter & Gamble y en 2014 ya en Dieste recibe el galardón a Mejor Idea para el mercado hispano de Estados Unidos. Actualmente, Ciro es el Presidente del Círculo Creativo Latino en Estados Unidos y es el Chief Creative Officer de Dieste, una de las agencias Multiculturales más importantes y premiadas, con una cartera de clientes como Miller Lite, Goya Foods y AT&T, el anunciante más grande del país.

La visión de Ciro como creativo le ha permitido destacarse en el mercado americano y ser reconocido como uno de los latinos más importantes para la industria hispana de Estados Unidos. Un ingenio que le ha permitido triunfar en un mercado extranjero, este año compartirá sus experiencias como líder creativo hispano en Estados Unidos en El Ojo de Iberoamérica. Además de participar como conferencista de El Ojo de Iberoamérica, Ciro suma este año la responsabilidad de liderar a los Jurados de El Ojo Radio 2017.

A Ciro Sarmiento se le suma otro conferencista anunciado por El Ojo de Iberoamérica, Saneel Radia, Senior VP de Business Transformation para R/GA. Una mente diseñada para los negocios que compartirá sus experiencias de transformación y hablará sobre los nuevos modelos de negocios para la industria publicitaria. Los que estén interesados en conocer hacia dónde se dirige el futuro de la publicidad en la región, ya pueden adquirir sus entradas con un 30% de descuento hasta el 25 de septiembre.

Círculo Creativo announces Call For Entries open for The U.S.H. Idea Awards 2017

The U.S. Hispanic Creative Circle has today announced that entries to the 6th USH Idea Awards are now open. Agencies will have until September 15th to submit creative pieces to the festival that will be held in Miami on October.

The U.S.H. Idea Awards, the premier event for the industry, celebrate outstanding creative achievement in advertising generated by Hispanic or general market agencies targeting Hispanic consumers.

“We are expecting one of the best USH Awards shows ever,” says Ciro Sarmiento, president of Círculo Creativo and CCO of Dieste Inc. "Hispanic agencies are having an outstanding year regarding creativity, breaking award records in several different festivals. And I’m sure this will be reflected not only on the quality of the work but also on the amount of submissions.”

Gustavo Lauria, chairman at Círculo Creativo and cofounder at We Believers, added: “Our role as Círculo Creativo is to open our doors for everyone to participate, get inspired and collaborate to raise the creative bar every year. That’s why we invite top creative planners and the key professionals from production companies to join and be part of our jury once again.”  


What’s New?

Círculo Creativo is launching a new category this year: Creative Data – celebrating the interplay of ideas and information – as the 17th award category. Entries in the Creative Data category must clearly demonstrate how the execution/campaign was enhanced or driven by the creative use, interpretation, analysis or application of data. The creative use of data must sit at the core of the idea and the results/impact must be clear and robust.

Also, several subcategories were updated to reflect the new reality of our industry. New subcategories will include 360° & Virtual Reality Videos and Augmented Reality, among others.

The Media category was also updated and renamed Use of Media while Direct and Promo & Activation were split into two separate categories:
1) Direct
2) Promo & Activation

Another important change was the upgrade of the OpenWater system, making the submission process faster and easier. Agencies can submit their entry in multiple categories and subcategories at once, avoiding multiple submissions.


How to participate:
USH agencies are encouraged to participate by submitting pieces to the following categories:
1.   Film
2.   Radio
3.   Print & Publishing
4.   Outdoor
5.   Cyber & Mobile
6.   Creative Data
7.   Innovation
8.   Planning & Strategy
9.   Craft
10.  Direct
11.  Promo & Activation
12.  Design
13.  Branded Content & Entertainment
14.  PR
15.  Use Of Media
16.  Integrated

Any entry submitted for general market (non-U.S. Hispanic), or for other countries created by U.S. Hispanic Agencies must be submitted in the Beyond Hispanic category.

More info about the awards can be found here and previous winners can be found here.
 

Costs & Dates:
Regular rate from August 23rd through August 31st: US$ 360 per entry.
Extended Deadline from September 1st through September 15th: US$ 410 per entry.

Ciro Sarmiento Named President Of The U.S. Círculo Creativo

Sarmiento will be working together with Gustavo Lauría, Chairman of the Círculo Creativo, for the next two years.

Círculo Creativo today announced that Ciro Sarmiento, Chief Creative Officer at Dieste, has joined the nonprofit organization as President to work hand in hand with Gustavo Lauría and the Círculo Creativo Board of former presidents.

With over 15 years of experience in the U.S. in both the multicultural and general markets, as well as international experience in Latin America, Ciro Sarmiento is one of the most talented and respected creative directors in the U.S. Hispanic Market, who also worked for world-renowned agencies such as Ogilvy & Mather and Leo Burnett.

Commenting on his appointment, Ciro Sarmiento said: “It’s a profound honor to represent the Hispanic market agencies in the U.S. as President of Circulo Creativo.  Leading Círculo has been and continues to be a rigorous job, it requires the constant participation from the President, the chairman and board members. We’re living through decisive times in this country, times that will define the future for the next Latino generations and I am committed to working incessantly alongside the board of directors and Chairman to be at the forefront of the incoming changes in our industry.”  

Sarmiento’s creative work has been recognized across the globe, and his extensive list of awards includes several prestigious at the Cannes Lions, D&AD, Clio Awards, New York Festivals, LIA, Effie, and The One Show as well as several Latin American award shows such as Wave Festival and El Ojo. He has also served on several international creative festival juries in the course of his career.

Gustavo Lauría, Chairman, commented: “It is time to bring some new blood to the Círculo Creativo, in order to keep developing initiatives to inspire our agencies, our creative output and also start working closer with clients and the corporate side of the market, together with Ciro.”
