D&AD success

The mythical D&AD New Blood pencil.

It's competition time and once again the Lincoln Creative Advertising course has been successful. The international D&AD New Blood awards set some very tricky briefs this year and, as ever, there were a huge number of entries from across the globe. We never take success for granted and the staff and students always work hard because they are competing with the best students across the world.

This year Lincoln CA students achieved four 'in book' awards and one nomination for a coveted D&AD Pencil. The successful students this year were Chloe Bishop, Christina Worman, Jade Andrews, Masha Shukkore, Stanley Bennett, Bethany Applebee and Tuomas Watkins.

All of the students involved richly deserve their success but special mention must go to Tuomas who got an 'In book' and a pencil nomination, whilst still in the first year of the course!

The awards ceremony is being held in London on 3rd of July as part of the New Blood festival so we will be keeping our fingers crossed for Tuomas and hoping to add to the trophy cabinet.

Well done to all that entered the D&AD New Blood competition, it's a great way to gain experience and makes the students much more professional, long may it continue.
