MUMBAI: Kyoorius in association with D&AD has launched the 2014 Kyoorius Advertising, Digital and Design Awards annual in Mumbai. The awards annual features the Black and Blue Elephant winning entries along with all in-book winners from the 2014 edition of the awards, providing an invaluable and unrivalled source of creative inspiration. The book was launched in the presence of the industry’s top professionals and influencers.
The annuals go beyond listing the winning agencies and studios, giving exposure and due credit to each and every person involved in every stage of a project, from brief to concept to execution – from creative directors and CCOs, designers and copywriters to post-production studios, sound editors and printers, being a testament to the fact that exceptional work is the result of a team effort.
The annual was designed as a special box set – 4,000 copies will be distributed to corporate, creatives and all the art and design colleges and institutions in the country to help stimulate future talent.
Keeping the excitement going, the key dates for the 2015 Kyoorius Awards were also announced. This included the dates for the Advertising & Digital Awards night – heralded by many as the most exciting awards ceremony of the year as well as the Design Awards, which recognises exceptional work created across a breadth of disciplines.
Kyoorius founder CEO Rajesh Kejriwal commented, “We are thrilled to announce the schedule for the 2015 Kyoorius Awards and are committed to providing a completely neutral and ethical platform that recognises the very best of Indian creative talent, year after year. The 2014 Awards Annuals are an unrivaled resource for managers and clients looking for the right people who can give a voice to their brands; they offer an overview of the most noteworthy creatives working in India today – the people you will find in these pages are the ones to watch.”
D&AD CEO Tim Lindsay added, "We approach the second Kyoorius Awards supported by D&AD with great optimism concerning the positive impact on the creative community in India. D&AD and Kyoorius are both dedicated to inspiring, celebrating and nurturing the next generation of creative talent - vital for the future health of our industry.
