TALBOT, BOWMAN SELECTED FOR D&AD JURY

Saatchi & Saatchi Auckland CD Toby Talbot and senior creative Dave Bowman, have been selected to judge the 2007 D&AD Global Awards. Talbot (pictured) is slated for the Poster jury, while Bowman gets Writing for Advertising. This brings the NZ total to a record five judges (compared to a record 10 for Australia) who will be heading to London in April next year.
Although a reason to celebrate Australasia's stature in the ad world (NZ is ranked 7th in terms of D&AD jury members, Australia 3rd), why D&AD picked two creatives from the one agency is sure to be a sore point for some rival creative directors yet to get the D&AD invitation!
