D&AD Awards 2011 announces Call for Entries
01.12.2010 News
London (United Kingdom) - Designers from around the world are invited to take part in D&AD Awards 2011. From now until 31 January, participants can enter their original and inspiring work in 25 different categories.
D&AD has celebrated and nurtured outstanding work in design and advertising since 1962. The Yellow Pencil is recognised the world over as a symbol of true creative achievement. Year on year D&AD Annuals showcase the very best work and continue to provide an unrivalled source of creative inspiration.
D&AD's current President, Sanky attempted to learn a tongue-in-cheek speech and deliver it as 'The President' in as many languages as possible. The only language Sanky speaks is English so he had no head start, he had to learn each language phonetically and work with voice coaches until he got the speech right - or as near to right as possible. He made it to 13 over two days. Russian proved to be a bridge too far. Don't be surprised if a few further instalments appear over the next couple of months. The speeches are available at: www.youtube.com/dandad
