The awards were presented on Tuesday, 8 May 2018 with the evening hosted by art director, pixel designer and singer Momo Pixel, who created the Momoland annual interactive pixel-art experience.
The Young Ones Educational Festival included the Young Ones Student Awards, portfolio reviews, client pitch competition, Educators Summit and other events that serve as a launching pad for many students’ careers, as well as an opportunity to mingle with fellow students and professionals from all over the world.
The Young Ones Student Awards is the largest global programme of its type and dates back to 1986, now comprising three components designed to help young creatives around the world hone their skills and have their work and portfolios judged by the industry’s top creative professionals.
This includes the Young Ones ADC, where students submit work to win ADC Cubes; Young Ones Briefs, where creative teams compete to win a Pencil for their client, social and/or design briefs; and the Young Ones Portfolio, recognising students who have the most impressive books of work.
SA student set’s best
South Africa was responsible for five of the wins in the Young Ones ADC Awards component, with Lauren Bloom bringing home two bronze awards from her work at the AAA School of Advertising Cape Town – one for Illustration on her "Calculated Creative" work and another in Publication design for "Black: A study of the darkest colour”.
Merit awards went to AAA School of Advertising Cape Town’s Serena van Baalen in Publication design for “Sew Far, Sew Good”; as well as to Red & Yellow School’s Sj Stephens for Life Magazine’s “Sunday Glory” in Photography/Photojournalism, as well as to Red & Yellow School’s Felicity Davies in Publication design for ”IO magazine”.

The Young Ones Social Brief, in coordination with FCB Health, New York, concerned opioid overdose awareness and prevention.
The Young Ones Design Brief, working with non-profit peace organization PartnersGlobal and the United Nations’ Together, asked students to create a mass transit poster for global distribution that helps promote a positive image and acceptance of refugees and migrants. No Gold Pencils were awarded for the Design Brief.
This year, the Young Ones Student Awards: Portfolio Award worked with the Serviceplan platform to help students showcase their body of work and get hired. Later this year, one young winner in the portfolio competition will have a chance to interview for a six-month paid internship at Disney’s Yellow Shoes, the in-house agency for The Walt Disney Company in Los Angeles. This year’s Portfolio Award winners were all from the USA and UK.
