France Jury Celebrates 7 Finalists at The Immortal Awards 2024

The European jury days at this year’s The Immortal Awards are well underway and, on October 15th, it was the turn of the France jury to decide upon the market’s Finalists at this year’s competition.

A jury made up of some of the market’s finest creative and production leaders met to review the shortlist, which was composed of the 19 highest scoring projects from the online round of judging.

The jury diligently discussed and debated until, ultimately, seven of them were deemed worthy of receiving Finalist status and being championed as the best French commercial creativity from the past year.

The projects now qualify for the European round of judging and will compete alongside the best work from the rest of the region for a place on the global shortlist.

The Immortal Awards 2024 France Finalists are:

The seven projects will go up against the five Irish, four Nordics, and three German Finalists as well as those from the forthcoming European jury days – including the Netherlands, UK and Spain – and the best work from the rest of the region at the European round of judging on Thursday October 24th. They’ll be competing for a place in the final, global round of judging and ultimately a chance at winning an Immortal Award or Commendation.
