Creativepool’s call for entries is open for Annual 2021, applauding the best work from the creative and advertising sectors in a year that was more demanding than usual.
The deadline is May 27, after which late fees (20%) will apply.
Two new categories, Covid-19 and Social Good, have been added to Creativepool’s most awards to inject some optimism (and Creativepool’s signature fun) into the industry.
Michael Tomes, founder of Creativepool, commented, “We want The Annual to be a beacon of hope and optimism for the industry, showing how agencies and creative professionals can still make a difference for the entire world. We hope that Annual 2021 will give everyone reasons to celebrate as we ease back into a new normal.”
