SORGE HEADS TO CD POST AT GREY BANGKOK

Travis Sorge, the American copywriter who came to NZ from LA in early 2005, has been lured to Thailand as creative director of Grey Worldwide Bangkok. He will report to expat Kiwi regional CD Todd McCracken, based in Kuala Lumpur.
Sorge was hired by Colenso BBDO in April 2005 from Saatchi & Saatchi LA, largely due to the success of his Toyota 'Cliff' spot, which won awards around the world, including Best of Show at the International YoungGuns. Unfortunately, in February this year, he was retrenched from Colenso, following a pretty ordinary 2005 for the agency on the business front. Since then he has been busy freelancing.
