My friend Gina works in advertising in NYC. She sent me links to a BUNCH of impressive graphic design and advertising companies. It'll take me a while to post all of them, so I'll start with the Boston-based company.

If their website tells you anything, it's that Modernista! is not boring. There are so many moving and clickable things, you will be amused for quite a while.

The heading of their "About" section says it all: "Modernista! is not for everyone. We believe advertising is more an art than a science and that truly great creative work is priceless in today's cluttered market of parity products."

Started in 2000, the multi-disciplinary company has worked with such clients as (Product) Red, Converse (one of their print ads is pictured), and Cadillac. They have also been featured in numerous publications, like Adweek, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal.
