Entries are now open for the 43rd annual AXIS Awards, and instead of choosing a theme, this time the awards will celebrate the ideas that have shaped the show and industry in Aotearoa.
Axis Awards Convenor for 2023, Leisa Wall, says the more they dug through the archives, the more they realised the legacy of AXIS.
“When you look at past winners of AXIS you’ll agree there’s some work that has stood the test of time. Work that more often than not has gone on to win big on the international award circuit. We’re pretty bloody consistent and we should be proud.
“Those great ideas are the ones that inspire us. Driven with an equal mix of excitement and intimidation we grab an A3 pad and a black sharpie (or stylus and iPad) and set out to crack our own big idea. One that will be worthy of recognition. Firstly, by the audience it was created for but also our peers in the advertising industry.”
It’s time to do mental stock take of the past 12 months of work says Wall, and start to consider which projects could be winners.
