Next gen, this is that last minute you’ve been waiting for to enter The Young Ones Student Awards and Snapchat Young Lions Competition.
The Young Ones Student Awards’ late entry deadline is Monday, March 9 (in the US) – your last chance to submit your entries for Young Ones ADC, Young Ones Portfolio and Young Ones Brief. There will be no more deadline extensions, as judging will begin after Monday.
Snapchat Young Lions Competition deadline is 5pm AEDT Friday, 13 March
There are nine brief partners. Here are some samples:
Burger King
A favourite from last year’s competition.
Like many fast-food chains, couponing is a major part of Burger King’s marketing initiatives. But why limit yourself to paper coupons when the digital realm is so rich with creative possibilities? This year’s brief will challenge you to take digital coupons to the next level — with the bold and confident tone that The Home of the Whopper is famous for.
Lay’s
New for The Young Guns 2020
The brand most famous for its potato chips is looking to refresh its identity; everybody knows who they are, but their relevance and distinction seem to be slipping in a crowded marketplace. Tap into the magnetic enjoyment that is inherent in the brand, and have some warmhearted fun with this brief!
The New York Times
Returning to The Young Ones for 2020 in partnership with Droga5.
In a world where well-researched journalism can be labelled as “fake news” and false stories can spread like wildfire, trust in the media seems as fragile as ever. Your task is to reinforce the image of The New York Times as an ally of the people, one that seeks the truth and helps others better understand the world.
You can also enter your individual school and personal projects into Young Ones ADC, and have your whole body of work judged as a whole in Young Ones Portfolio.
