Lions Festivals Appoints Jack Morton Worldwide to Create Eurobest Opening Film

Lions Festivals, the organiser of eurobest - the Festival of European Creativity, has appointed global brand experience agency Jack Morton Worldwide to create the opening film and all other moving image content for the festival, which takes place in Antwerp, 1st-3rd December 2015.

eurobest is the world’s pre-eminent celebration of European creativity.  From the makers of Cannes Lions, it is designed to inform, challenge and inspire Europe's eclectic creative community.

Jack Morton is designing and animating the festival’s opening film. The film draws on this year’s theme of ‘makers and breakers’– a celebration of those who are experimenting and inventing, and those who are challenging and tearing down the status quo.

Jack Morton is also creating the content for a video wall within the venue and eighteen unique animated stings to introduce each award category during the Awards Show which closes the festival.

Adam Norris, Senior Creative Director, SVP, Moving Image, Jack Morton Worldwide said: "We are delighted to be partnering with Lions Festivals again. eurobest is one of the top European creative festivals and we are thrilled to be creating film content for its participants who are amongst the brightest young creative talent in Europe."

Jack Morton will also be speaking at the eurobest this year: SVP, Creative Strategy Director, Tim Leighton, will present a forum alongside Ericsson’s Head of Event Management, Cecilia Dahlström.
