ASIA-PACIFIC – BANGKOK, THAILAND, DECEMBER 2010 – BBDO Guerrero/Proximity Philippines Chairman and Chief Creative Officer David Guerrero has been appointed jury president for the Press Lotus and Poster Lotus categories of the Asia-Pacific ADFEST 2011.
BBDO Guerrero / Proximity was the top-ranking Asian agency in Campaign Brief’s The Work 2010, alongside Ogilvy & Mather Bangkok. Guerrero, one of the Philippines’ most awarded creatives, also heads the BBDO Asia Pacific Creative Council and is a member of the BBDO Worldwide Creative Council.
“David is more than an inspiring leader and a huge creative talent – he is also passionate about promoting Asian creativity to the world, which is why he makes the perfect Jury President for ADFEST 2011’s Press Lotus and Poster Lotus categories,” says ADFEST President Jimmy Lam.
Says Guerrero, “ADFEST is a great place to celebrate the best of Asia’s work, and Press and Poster is at the very heart of Asia’s best ideas. Perhaps more than ever, print is a medium that has the closest connection between those who create it and the people who see it. Plus, no other medium puts the creative team in as much direct control throughout the process."
“This means that teams from around the region can compete on a more level playing field in the Press and Poster categories. All of this makes it a great honour to be invited to head these Juries. We will work tirelessly to give every entry the attention it deserves.”
ADFEST 2011 takes place at Mövenpick Resort & Spa, Phuket, Thailand on March 17 to 19, 2011. For further information, visit www.adfest.com.
