BBDO Asia Young Lotus Workshop


BBDO Asia will be hosting the Young Lotus Workshop at the Asia Pacific Adfest awards in Thailand next week. Now in its fourth year, the objective of the Young Lotus is to develop fast rising creative talent from across the region by extending/challenging their creative skills and exposing them to senior advertising talent. This year BBDO Asia Pacific is launching an innovative approach to the Workshop. An approach that will see 30 young creatives from 15 different countries participating in the first reality based workshop of its kind, ever. During the 48 hours the creative development for the workshop takes place, the participants will be recorded and taped, leaving no part of the development process out. The ‘real’ process of each creative will then be observed and judged. Inspiring the young talent at the Workshop will be Chris Thomas, Chairman & CEO BBDO Asia Pacific, Peter Souter, Deputy Chairman and CCO, AMV BBDO London, Suthisak Sucharittanonta, Chairman & CCO, BBDO Bangkok, David Guerrero, Chairman & CCO, BBDO Guerrero/Ortega, and Simon Bond, Regional Director, Proximity Asia.Discover the Young Lotus in action and experience: The First Advertising Reality Show - Enter The Lotus at Adfest 2007.
