Advertising: Gold-winning work by BVK & New Entry by DarbyDarby Creative

The Advertising Annual is always full of inspiring campaigns and exciting problem-solving ideas. Last year, BVK won Gold for their submission, “Punishment” (ABOVE). Art Director Scott Krahn created this unique visual for their client, Footstock National Figure Eight Barefoot Championships, the largest endurance barefoot ski championship in the world. The pain is duly represented in the ad, but is presented in a humorous manner.

One of our latest entries, “UseCondoms” (ABOVE), was submitted by DarbyDarby Creative and reimagines Valentine’s Day cards for a PSA on the importance of using condoms. The messaging may be unexpected, but it is direct and stays with the viewer long after first glance.

The Advertising Annual 2020 Competition is open for submissions! Submit today before the deadline of June 4, 2019. Winners will have the opportunity to see their work published on our website, blog, newsletter, and social media platforms!
