More D&AD Awards 2008 juries announced
LONDON: D&AD Awards 2008 jury members for Art Direction, Illustration, Photography, Writing for Design and Ambient were announced earlier this week. Some of the big names for 2008 include Mark Reddy from Bartle Bogle Hegarty London leading the Art Direction jury, and Ivan Chermayeff, Chermayeff & Geismar Studio LLC, as the Illustration foreman.
Other foremen are:
- Ambient: Richard Flintham, Fallon London
- Photography: Guido Mocafico, Mocafico Studio
- Writing for Advertising: Tim Riley, AMV.BBDO
“When D&AD rang me about judging this category, they said: ‘Don't worry. It won't take more than a day.' And it's true. Writing for Advertising tends to attract fewer entries than, say, TV & Cinema or Posters. I think that's a bit of a shame,” said Riley.
“So my hope would be that this year we can find a good selection of well-written ads and award a Pencil or two. And that might inspire people to use words as well as pictures when they're creating ads in future. So when D&AD ring up next year's foreman, they'll be able to say: ‘Sorry. You're going to have to put a line through the entire week.'
