MANILA – After recently taking home the Grande for Lotus Roots at ADFEST in Thailand, and the Grand Kidlat award, TBWA\Santiago Mangada Puno is again getting a highly coveted award for its anti-Marcos campaign for CARMMA, ‘Correcting History’.
As one of the agencies included in the first set of D&AD Pencil winners, TBWA\SMP has a chance to win any of the Wood, Graphite, Yellow, or Black Pencil which will be announced during the awards ceremony on April 27 in Troxy, London.
‘Correcting History’ is a film featuring Martial Law survivors and millennials which aims to educate the youth about the atrocities and abuses that happened to real people during that tragic time. It serves as a grim reminder to Filipinos who are carelessly calling for another Martial Law.
So far, TBWA\SMP is the only Philippine agency who is in the running to win a D&AD Pencil this 2017.
