November Lunch & Learn with Kevin Fullerton: "These Judges Don't Know Sh*t!"
Despite the title of this presentation, we know that judges for the American Advertising Awards are actually our esteemed colleagues and friends. They know a thing or two about award-winning work and how to identify it. Kevin Fullerton is a perfect example – and he's joining AAF Midlands to break down everything that goes into the awards judging process, as well as what makes spectacular work stand out from the competition.
Have you ever found yourself thinking: “The judges are idiots. We should’ve won an ADDY. They wouldn’t know great work if it bit them in the butt.”? If you have, and you're wondering what goes through a judge’s head during the judging process, this is your chance to find out. Who knows? This may help you win an ADDY.
