ADC Festival 2011 : 'Ideas. Enforce' with jury chairman Chuck Porter, ADC exhibition, ADC Junior Days, ...

The ADC festival will be visiting Frankfurt am Main in good old Germany for the second time from the 4th to the 8th of May 2011.

This year the panel of judges for the ADC competition will be chaired by Chuck Porter of Crispin, Porter + Bugusky from America. This year's tagline: ‘Ideas. Enforce’. He will act as the creative mastermind of the 325 jury members, which have the honour of evaluating submissions between the 4th and 5th of May 2011 in Frankfurt.

Crispin, Porter + Bugusky are known for Milka's new 'tender and hearty' tagline, which has replaced the former slogan of 'the most tender temptation'.

We recommend paying the agency's website a visit, which features a making of with über-musician Justin Bieber and style legend Alice Cooper.

Crispin, Porter + Bugusky currently employs a team of over 1,000 staff, with offices in Miami, Boulder, Los Angeles, London, as well as in Göteburg, Sweden. Their clients include big players such as Microsoft, Burger King, Coke, Best Buy, Gap, Domino’s and American Express.

Over 8,000 works – ranging from adverts, websites, films, photographs, newspapers, magazines and room installations will be presented in Hall 5 from the 6th to the 8th of May at Messe Frankfurt. You can check out the variety of last year’s winners online.

In the justly put words of ADC CEO Jochen Rädeker: ‘With its jurors, the ADC not only sports the largest jury amongst all creative competitions, but also the most competent – with top experts from all areas of communication. Therefore, the ADC competition is the absolute and only measuring stick for creative excellence in the German language regions.” Hear, hear we say, after all, who could possibly disagree?

Further information and tickets are available from the ADC website. FYI: the just-as-exciting programme of accompanying events (parties, parties, parties!) will of course be available peu à peu here on GoSee.

We have already packed our bags and our counting the days!
