Judging of the 50th D&AD Awards takes place 16-19 April at Olympia, with the Yellow Pencil Results Night happening at the BFI London IMAX at 7pm on Thursday 19 April. Black Pencils will be awarded at D&AD's Birthday Dinner in September.
This year, judging is open to press to explore the exhibition, observe the jury's deliberations and interview the judges.
Attached here is a spreadsheet of judge's names. If you would like an interview and are yet to book accreditation, please let Liam Fay-Fright* know as capacity is limited. The organisers have dedicated AV teams producing video on site, so if you are unable to make judging but would like them to conduct an interview on your behalf, send your questions to Fay-Fright and if possible, your questions will be included in the interview. Videos will be delivered within a day.
