EditorNews Make a Comment

A further four shortlists – in Outdoor, Media, PR and Creative Effectiveness – have been announced overnight at the Cannes Lions Festival. On Day 2, Colenso BBDO again topped the shortlists leaderboard – but this time it was no whitewash, with FCB, DDB and Y&R all doing well.

Colenso scored four Outdoor finalist spots – three for NZ Book Council (1984, Romeo & Juliet, and The Bible executions) as well as Volkswagen Reduce Speed Dial. FCB also won three spots – for Prime TV Glamazon, Sony NZ Octographer and Shine Never Ending Street Posters.
