The D&AD Pencil is the world’s beacon for creative excellence, celebrating ideas that have been imagined brilliantly and executed beautifully.
The recipient of New Zealand’s first and only highly-acclaimed Black Pencil, and Colenso BBDO’s Chief Creative Officer, Levi Slavin, has been called to the role of Jury President at the D&AD Awards 2020.
Levi returned to New Zealand just over two years ago after a spell at BBDO New York, where he created several ground-breaking pieces of work, including GE’s The Message Podcast.
He will be leading the judging panel for the Radio & Audio category – a lifelong career ambition for the Australian-born and highly awarded creative leader.
Says Levi, “Being selected to judge at D&AD is an extraordinary honour. To be asked to lead a jury is truly a career highlight. I look forward to working with the world’s best thinkers to celebrate the world’s best work.”
Says Scott Coldham, Managing Director at Colenso BBDO, “I’m thrilled for Levi to be appointed. It’s an honour reserved for the industry’s most revered. Hats off.”
