A comprehensive quiz covering the full arc of Lee Clow's teachings β from creative input and mentorship to brand truth, the Think Different campaign, and the philosophy of a creative life.
You've traveled quite a journey through this course. From a kid surfing the beaches of Southern California and flipping through Mad Magazine, to the phone call that changed advertising history β "Guess what? I'm going to be CEO at Apple. Can you come up and help me?"
Now it's time to see how much of Lee Clow's philosophy has truly sunk in.
This comprehensive quiz pulls together every major idea from the course. Here's what you'll be tested on:
Lee's Creative Inputs & Personal History How his upbringing, surfing culture, Walt Disney, and unconventional influences shaped the way he sees creativity β and why all input is useful input.
Mentorship & the Chiat\Day Years The roles Jay Chiat, Guy Day, Bob Dion, and Haya Blanca played in pushing Lee to be better than he thought he could be β and what "good enough is not enough" really means in practice.
The Creative Revolution Lee Admired Bill Bernbach, Mary Wells, and the New York creative revolution β why advertising doesn't have to be stupid, and what it means to make an interruption worth remembering.
Brand Truth & the Apple Relationship Why Steve Jobs named the company Apple, what it means for everything a brand does to be advertising, and how trust between a client and a creative partner gets built over decades.
The Think Different Campaign The story behind one of the most iconic campaigns in history β the phone call, the panic, and the philosophy that made it possible.
The Philosophy of a Creative Life How Lee's personal principles β responsibility, curiosity, non-conformity, and relentless input β connect directly to his professional legacy.
Don't think of this as a test. Think of it as a mirror.
Lee spent his entire career asking himself one question: Is this good enough? Can it be better? That's the spirit to bring into this quiz. Not just "what did Lee say?" β but "do I understand why he said it, and how it applies to the work I do?"
The best creative people, as Lee would tell you, are the ones who keep consuming, keep questioning, and never quite let themselves believe they've fully arrived.
Go show what you've learned. Then go make something great.
Steve Jobs believed that 'everything a brand does is advertising.' What does this mean in practice?
