YOUNG CREATIVES COMPETITION

International WINNERS, YOUNG GLORY 2019

 

Copywriter Anne Lau and I won the international Young Glory competition. We were flown to Canada to present our winning work at the internationally renowned commerce meets creativity festival, C2 Montreal.

8 months. 8 briefs. 8 big name judges.

Each month, we responded to a brief set by a big name in the creative industry. The idea is then judged as a Gold (25pts), Silver (18pts), Bronze (15pts), Finalist (10pts) or not placing. After 8 briefs over 8 months, the scores are all added up and the winning team takes home the prize.

It’s the only worldwide creativity competition devoted to awarding creative consistency.
