the tally

Well the medal tally is up. Just saw the post on the Chairman for this years competition's blog. Some differences in the standing. This year each design discipline has a best of show gong given out. Last year there was only 1 for the overall best which JWT won it with the ad by ex-cd Joseph Tay(currently BATES Head of Art) for the art work Listerine.

2005 medal tally:


Well look at the difference, there are agencies that improve in the standing as well as agencies that went down in the rankings, well for some more ill fated agencies they did not even win anything this year round. This once again show which are the agencies that are creative. Coming back to the comparison, JWT slide down 2 placing to 3rd in the medal ranking gunning 2gold, 6silver, 8bronze and 7finalist. Bates moved up the most by 10 placing followed by Ogilvy&Mather moving up 6 places. Commendable agencies are DENTSU SG & Black Design they won't even in the tally last year. And of cause not forgetting Jonathan Yuen with his winning website, you can view it here http://www.jonathanyuen.com the illustration, sound and web design is superb.

I could understand why steven said Ogilvy&mather and Kinetic were challenging who had the most award that night looking at the no. of medals and certs they received its not that hard to imagine. Hahaha. Hope to view some pics at 4as.
