    Creative Circle results for September 2013

    The Creative Circle Ad of the Month results for September 2013 have been announced.
    Creative Circle results for September 2013

    The Creative Circle Ad of the Month results for September 2013 have been announced, and chairperson for the advertising judging panel that month, John Davenport of Ireland-Davenport comments: "There was some really nice print. Perhaps as a result of Eagles just being held. Few of the other categories had as much good work as print, although the experiential category was also pretty strong, probably because is only held every three months. And apparently we all need to work harder in radio though..."

    CategorySeptember 2013 chair comments
    PrintOnce again a winner that finished pretty far ahead of the other pieces in the category. Really nice concept and a great, strong simple idea.
    FilmA very nicely crafted piece for Prudential that finished well ahead of the others.
    RadioOkay, so this category was really quite poor. The other jurors were extremely keen that I emphasize that according to ad of month rules we had to award the top scoring spot ad of the month "winner" status, even though the scores were very very low. The top scoring spot in radio scored roughly half what the winners in the other categories scored.
    ExperientialThe work here was much more tightly grouped, with first, second and third only 2 or 3% between them. Flight Centre work that also did well at the Loeries a worthy winner.
