The new Loeries annual, designed by Grid Worldwide Branding, is out now at Exclusive Books. This year, the 32nd annual has taken on a new look and feel, designed to integrate with its corporate identity rather than follow on from the year's ad campaign. Going forward, each year's annual will form part of a comprehensive collection of reference books, for creative and marketing directors.
The official ranking tables have been included and comprise the top ten brands, agencies and production companies, as well as a breakdown by category and size. New in the book are the individual creative rankings, such as executive creative directors, copywriters, designers and photographers - all contributing to making this annual an essential tool for anyone involved in the brand communication industry.
It showcases all 2010 winners, from Grand Prix to Crafts, as well as special awards and an index of the winning agencies, brands, production companies and individual creative credits. A set of DVDs is included, showcasing all the electronic media winners.
It retails at R550 (excl. vat) at selected Exclusive Books stores, from Pulp Books (www.pulpbooks.co.za) or via the Loeries online store (www.theloerieawards.co.za).
