SAMPLE JUDGES' COMMENTS
Everything about this campaign tells the same story in a compelling and magical way, yet is down to earth. Very well done!

Captivating graphics and the tie-in to wayfinding signs is a unique approach.

Incredible photoediting! I also loved the creativity in their campus signage — what a smart, innovative way to expand reach and increase visibility!

This is where "keeping it real" meets a very valuable learning experience. Everything screams value.

Fun graphics that catch the eye! Also liked the way the campaign addresses the issue of "too expensive" head-on.

The design of the "inspire the curious" print ads were incredibly creative, very well designed, and engaging with the viewer. The mix of illustration with photography was creative and well done. You see it done often, but not always done with effectiveness. Great job!

The outcome-focused tagline and value proposition messaging, combined with the cute photos, are very effective.

The "give me independence" slogan was absolutely brilliant. I applaud your copywriters for this effective, creative slogan that was distinctly branded to your school. You know you have a great ad when the ad could only work for your school — and you all knocked it out of the park! I also loved how you all included fast facts within your body copy; the short copy gave me enough details about your school without overinforming. I was also impressed by how you took what could have been a simple print campaign and expanded on it to include digital advertising, a social media campaign, and on-campus signage. Overall, a well-rounded, all-encompassing campaign!
