The One Show 2020 Pencil Showcase

A total of 19,688 pieces from 71 countries were entered into The One Show 2020. This year’s jury upheld the show’s long-standing high standards as one of the industry’s most difficult honours to win, awarding just 552 Pencils: 171 Golds, 169 Silver and 213 Bronze.

All of this year’s Gold, Silver and Bronze Pencil winners can be viewed at the new, custom-built The One Show 2020 Pencil Showcase. Winning work is presented by discipline, allowing visitors to view case studies and credits, as well as search for the 2020 winners list by individual, agency, brand, discipline and region. A complete list of all Pencil and Merit winners is available here.

More than 100 of the winning entries in The One Show 2020 Winners’ Showcase are accompanied with brief jury shoutout videos, in which judges for this year’s show congratulate the team behind the work and explain why they thought it was worthy of a Pencil.

The One Show Digital Pencils

Also new this year are The One Show Digital Pencils, available to every member of a creative team identified in credits for winning work. Developed by R/GA New York, the personalised Digital Pencils will be rendered in advance and downloadable in three sizes suited for immediate sharing on social media. Physical Pencils will also be sent to winners as usual in the coming weeks.

Said Kevin Swanepoel, CEO, The One Club:

It’s been a very difficult year for the industry and world at large, and we believe elevating and recognizing the best work in the world provides some good news at a time when it’s really needed.

“As a nonprofit organisation, it’s our mission to support the global creative community. Many creatives told us they could really use the inspiration and positive shared experience of the awards, and that motivated us to push forward with online judging and special streaming winners’ presentations.”

He added: “As the industry’s largest program for celebrating creativity this year, The One Show 2020 is the authoritative show for global creative excellence, and global platform for bringing the industry together.”

Special Awards

This year’s special awards winners will be announced tomorrow, 18 June at 12:00 pm EDT (6 pm CAT) on The One Club website and social channels in a special “The One Show For All”-themed streaming video created by hip-hop improv group and Broadway stars Freestyle Love Supreme.

Special awards include The One Show 2020 Best of Show, all Best of Discipline winners, Green Pencil, Penta Pencil, Sustainable Development Pencil and Cultural Driver Pencil. The One Club will also reveal 2020 Agency of the Year, Independent Agency of the Year, In-House Agency of the Year, Network of the Year, Creative Holding Company of the Year, Production Company of the Year and Client of the Year winners.

“The One Show For All” theme reflects the organisation’s quest to rally unity and empathy within the creative community as it deals with industry issues such as furloughs and layoffs, as well as larger societal issues including racial injustice and Covid-19 pandemic.

Champion for craft, design and innovation

The One Club awards shows each have their distinct focus. The One Show judges focus on creativity of ideas and quality of execution, while ADC Annual Awards juries maintain their historic concentration as the champion for craft, design and innovation.

In early March, The One Club announced the switch from in-person to online judging for both of this year’s awards shows. The change allowed jury members from around the world to continue to review entries in safe environments, and enabled the shows to maintain the global integrity and quality to the judging process.

In-person judging, Creative Week and The One Show, ADC Annual Awards and Young Ones Student Awards ceremonies in New York will resume in 2021.
