I'd like to thank

Just heard that The Duel campaign I worked on got in The One Show. If you worked in the ad industry, you’d be all, “The One Show! That’s awesome! That’s like The Oscars of Advertising!” And I’d reply, “A) Stop yelling and B) Actually, Cannes is The Oscars of Advertising. The One Show is more like The Golden Globes, but it’s still awesome so thanks.”

I also found out that The Duel got in D&AD (Don’t be fooled by the name. D&AD is actually about more than Design & Art Direction.). It’s one of the most prestigious awards in advertising and rarely do American agencies get in, so it’s truly an honor.

Both The One Show and D&AD have gold & silver award systems, but I won’t find out if we won one of those until May. At the very least, The Duel will be in both shows so that’s pretty cool.
