The Creative Circle (also known as The Advertising Creative Circle and The Advertising Creative Circle of Great Britain) is an educational awards body dedicated to creativity in British advertising, and the oldest advertising and marketing awards body in Europe. Their mission is to help promote creative excellence in advertising, while sharing knowledge and experience through educational programs and supporting young creative people.

I’m thrilled to have been invited to be a Gold Judge on the 2022 Creative Circle Animation Jury! Over 800 UK creatives registered this year, and I’m sure the judging process won’t be an easy feat! Good luck to everyone who entered, and thanks to Jeremy Green and the Creative Circle Awards for selecting me.
