R/GA Tries to Appeal to Foodies

Now that we’ve gotten a good look at its tattooed staffers, R/GA is introducing us to its foodies, namely those possessing some sort of unique interest in cooking. It’s part of a new series the “agency for the digital age” has unveiled on its Facebook page called Gusto and here, we’re introduced to characters/employees with Guy Ritchie-approved names like David “The Candyman,” Thiago “The Historian” and Will “The Butcher.” We personally like Thiago’s clip above, which features spliced footage and animation to explain his passion for “slow cooking.” Sure, it doesn’t rouse us like a quickfire challenge or Gordon Ramsay berating staff, but it’s a decent, quick diversion during the waning hours of the afternoon. Anyhow, check out Will slice up a pig’s head and David indulge his sweet tooth after the jump.
