Young Guns will blaze on Friday

The winner and finalists of the design for the 2010 YoungGuns Call for Entry Campaign will be announced Friday, 12 February 2010 by Young Guns International. From all the entrants to the 2009 creative brief, a shortlist of 10 has been selected to end up with one winner, one highly commended and eight finalists.

The organisers stated that there was a wide range of ideas submitted and they thank all the creatives (professionals and students) who contributed their ideas and appreciated everyone's patience over the time it took to get the shortlist finalised.

The winning idea will become the YoungGuns 2010 Call for Entry campaign and will also form the foundation for the 2010 Winners & Finalists Reel theme.
