About me
Hello my name is Martins Zelcs which means Machine of Ideas in Latvian. Ok, maybe not, but I am from Latvia and an art director that loves conceptual thinking and creating ideas that make this world a better place. I believe advertising has a big influence on society, so it should inspire, educate and entertain.
