Paul Monan, awards director at The Immortal Awards, says, “Kicking off our jury sessions in Dublin has become a bit of an Immortals tradition, with this being our third consecutive year starting with our Ireland jury day. We wouldn’t be able to do that without the support of three truly fantastic partners in Brill Building, Banjoman and Screen Scene, who like us share the same commitment in showcasing Irish creativity to the world. It’s always exciting to see the work in Ireland, which historically is a smaller advertising but consistently punches above it’s weight. There’s an abundance of truly excellent ideas emanating from Ireland and the production levels are improving year on year. It’s only a matter of time until we have our first Immortal or Commendation going to an Irish project!”
Thanks to our wonderful Immortal Awards partners
