The Creative Circle Announces the Second Wave of 2024 Gold Jurors

The Creative Circle has announced the members of its 2024 Gold Juries. With 21 juries tasked with awarding the best work from across all aspects of the creative industries including film craft, music video, gaming, audio and packaging, the lineups feature leading creatives in their respective fields.

The 2024 juries also feature names from companies previously recognised at the Creative Circle Awards, including representatives from Uncommon Creative Studio, which in 2023 was named the Most Creative Agency for the fourth year in a row. 

There are also representatives from last year’s Most Creative Sound Design Company, 750mph and from Electric Theatre Collective, the three-time winner of Most Creative Post Production Company. 

The Creative Circle is committed to its pledge of achieving greater representation and inclusion in the creative industries, with 10% of all award entry fees and 100% of membership fees going directly to the Creative Foundation charity, which has raised over £190,000 since its launch in 2017. Directly supporting young creatives, the Creative Careers Fair is the only one of its kind, delivering advice and work experience to young people interested in a creative career path. 

Jeremy Green, managing director of the Creative Circle comments on the stellar line-up, “2024 has been our biggest year yet for judging - with the highest number of people actively taking part in deciding on the best creative work from this year. It’s fantastic to see so many great creative projects being submitted, with so many members of the creative industry involved in judging. It makes The Creative Circle Awards the fairest judging process of any creative awards body year on year. I want to thank all of our creative judges for giving us their time and expertise.

The Creative Circle Awards ceremony returns to Dreamland, Margate this year, closing the festivities of the 2024 UK Creative Festival on 11th July 2024.
