This book features anyone who was anyone on the Hong Kong creative scene during the last 30 years, and explores some of the greatest campaigns that the territory has seen, pre and post-1997. It traces the evolution in style of creativity from the earlier, western-influenced, and expatriate-driven creativity of the 1970s and 80s, through to the emergence of a more unique, local and very Cantonese voice which preceded and followed the handover. Finally we look to the future. To China, and to the role that Hong Kong might play in the bigger scheme of things. This is a tribute to all those who built the industry, and features samples of long forgotten campaigns which many people had grown up with.
