Creative Circle results for April 2007
The Creative Circle results for April 2007 are in, and, as per the new rules, the top three ads go through to Ad of Year and there are no first, second or third places – the winners are listed in agency alphabetical order.
Comments chairperson Gerry Human, “The best thing about the new system of judging is not just that the winners were quickly and easily identified because each individual piece no longer needs to be scored, but rather that there's now loads more love, kisses and back-pats at the announcements afterwards (although it is a bit of a bummer that there's hardly anything left to slag off or bleat about anymore).
“Post results the winning work was discussed and, in keeping with the happy spirit of the day, the jury was unanimous in its support of the winners, commenting that the winning work was smart, fresh and that there were some beautiful examples of craft.
“Well done winners!” he adds.
