After going through winners of both, I think D&AD is a better show than Cannes. They’re awarding better work.

Way less bs chasing a social issue/cause just in time for an entry deadline at d&ad.

It always was. It's a non profit, so they don't necessarily have to reward all entrants to some extent so they keep chipping in.

I’ve won lots of awards over the years but the only one I’ve ever kept for myself is a D&AD pencil.
It means the most. Bonus: it’s easily the most tastefully designed of them all.

Same. The yellow. The only one I ever wanted. Finally got it last year.

And harder to win

A black or yellow pencil at D&AD. And an Emmy. Those are the ones who truly matter.

Cannes GP and Gold come shortly after. And One Show as well.

But where the execs yacht at D&AD?

funny

Yes. (I say to myself with pencils but no lions)

The Black Pencil is the highest honor there is in this biz IMO, aside from maybe an Oscar.

Emmy not Oscar

You’re thinking Emmys, not Oscars.

An Emmy would be pretty sweet

Always.

D&AD, One Show, and Comm Arts.
Comm Arts, no trophy. You just get published in their annual, whatever one you enter. Ohh, and a certificate. Suitable for framing.

Just getting the Comm Arts acceptance note was an award.
Not even a full sheet of paper. Torn paper, "Thank you for your entry, you are number 5023...

Hi all. I can't help but feel that my current 'Digital Managing Partner' job title is a little too niche when it comes to LinkedIn job/resume keyword relevance, particularly outside of a media agency environment. However, a 'Digital Director' title feels too junior and 'Managing Director' maybe a little more senior. Any logical suggestions please? Thanks
