Milc, Siena has beheaded Santa in its latest graphic metaphor for how advertising budget cuts impact people that specialize in creative communication.
The shockvertising captions read, “Creativity is that extra bit of magic that can turn communication into a dream.And there is no crisis that can justify the killing of a dream,” and “To cut your communication budget means to cut your own future.”
