Between building new entertainment properties, pitching fresh creative ideas and running one of Canada’s Top Ten Agencies, Mike Burns is a very busy man. Some days, he’s like a mythical beast–from time to time you can hear his distant cry ringing out over the intercom, but try to catch a glimpse of him with the naked eye and you turn to stone. On those days, trying to catch Mike for longer than a few seconds involves a bag of gummi bears, some chloroform and a makeshift lassoo.
When our friends at ihaveanidea come calling, however, he’s more than happy to take some time to chat, and the result is often a great window into what makes Mike an exciting CEO to work with. Fuel, as an agency pushing for a creative rennaissance in advertising, really stands by ihai’s mission to bring creatives together for the good of the industry, and we’re honoured to be able to be featured on their site.
Please enjoy Mike’s chat with ihai’s Brett McKenzie, where they rap about everything from CES to flying cars.
A big cheers goes out to ihaveanidea for sharing Fuel’s passion for creativity in advertising.
