Meet Mr. Stamp
Hello. I'm Anthony Stamp, an award-winning creative and copywriter, with gongs for my work in film, digital and print.
I’m often called integrated. I prefer flexible. Things change fast. Some formats are smaller or shorter than others. Likewise, some projects take months, while others are wrapped up in a day. That’s part of the fun.
During my career I’ve been lucky enough to collaborate with amazing designers, animators, directors, engineers and editors. But I also know that being a creative is about making opportunities happen and thinking on your feet. After all, you can create an award-winning press ad armed with nothing more than a stock shot and a bit of lip.
Before I got into advertising, I worked in publishing and TV production, including a stint producing a daily pop news bulletin for MTV. I am still receiving medical attention for a Backstreet Boys earworm.

"Ant lives up to his name. He’s small, works hard and can carry a big creative idea with surprising ease. If ever you have a knotty creative problem, or a big opportunity you can’t unlock, I would recommend Ant without reservation."
Charles Vallance, Founder and Chairman, VCCP
"Ant transforms creative ideas into brilliant copy. Ant took the ideal collaborative approach with us, asking great questions, responding with insight and creativity. He knows what works. He refined our tone of voice with ease."
HELEN SLATER, MARKETING DIRECTOR, RADA
"Anthony fitted in seamlessly with the team, grasped a complex brief from the get-go and delivered some excellent work. Highly recommended."
ADAM LAWRENSON, ECD, KBS ALBION
"Ant is a joy to work with; fast, fun and extremely creative. Because Ant was a ‘digital’ creative back in the day when most creatives thought digital was just banners and skyscrapers, he’s had a head start on the rest of the industry in regard to devising content designed to spread through social media. This means he also understands and can recommend how best to structure the distribution of the content, so you get a creative and media planner in one. Lastly, he’s got good taste in music: the stooges, rare soul and free jazz. Don’t hold it against him."
Dominic Stinton, Partner, Twice Reply (former MD, VCCP)
Here are a couple of mugshots. I tend to keep my hair short these days, otherwise I look like a microphone.
