This year D&AD will be hosting a private screening of the 2016 D&AD Award winners in Australia.
Be
part of D&AD Awards Ceremony: the biggest celebration of global
advertising and design on Friday morning the 20th of May. This event is
exclusively brought to Sydney by Shutterstock.
Join the finest
minds in communications, design, film and technology to experience
first-hand the awarding of 2016's Wood, Graphite, Yellow, White and
Black pencils.
London's biggest night will simultaneously be
celebrated Down Under with a selection of the best work and the
announcement of the D&AD winners. Including award-winning work from
Australia and New Zealand.
Hosted by Jonathan Kneebone (left), co-founder of The Glue Society, the
screening will be held in Sydney's Eternity Playhouse Theatre in
Darlinghurst. There will be a strong focus around this years judging
process, D&AD's festival and most importantly, the recognition of
the best creative work from around the world this year.
Says Kneebone: "The diversity of
creative work being scrutinised and judged at award shows around the
world is growing and becoming ever more complex.
"And while at
some events, every category has a winner, diluting the value of the
achievements - D&AD sets a universal standard across all the various
categories - and seeks out the stuff that is original, contemporary,
relevant, valuable and brilliantly crafted. So a winner here is really
worth celebrating and recognising.
"It will be fascinating to see
these displayed, spot the trends and explore the reasons why certain
work stood up to the scrutiny to the judges through the eyes of some of
this year's Australian jurors."
Some of the Australian judges who
participated this year at D&AD Judging will share their insights
and outtakes of the jury experience as well.
Some notable jurors
include: Dave Bowman (right), Creative Director Special Group (Integrated),
Richard Bullock, Director Hungry Man (Creativity for Good), Jo de Fina,
Executive Producer The Otto Empire (Music videos) and Tara McKenty Creative
Director Google Australia (Direct).
