D&AD says it in every language: ‘Our standards are higher’
International advertising awards organiser D&AD has launched a multi-language appeal to the world’s advertising creatives.
And in what appears to be something of a challenge to the likes of the Cannes Lions and the US based One Show, Simon ‘Sanky’ Sankarayya claims: “Our standards are higher than the rest”, before saying that the awards are open to “even a social media consultant”.
He also presented a multi-lingual address on YouTube aiming to speak to ad agencies in as many languages as possible.
Australia’s representatives on the D&AD awards include Mojo’s Craig Davis as foreman on the integrated and earned media jury and Droga 5’s David Nobay for outdoor. M&C Saatchi’s Dave King is the NZ representative as jury foreman for direct.
Tim Burrowes founded Mumbrella in 2008. He worked on Mumbrella until 2021. At various points he was editor, content director and editor-at-large.
