This is the first year we’ll see Cannes’ new restructured categories and I predict it will have a positive impact.
Hopefully, we’ll see a more strict and creatively focused judging process with less politics leading to only really excellent work winning and so less Lions.
My general predictions are that we will see some rise in the importance of new type of communications but also something of a comeback for film, with much of it in new forms - like content and branded entertainment.
Lastly here are my predictions:
