The 12th GATSBY CREATIVE AWARDS
Provided by "GATSBY," a
men's cosmetic brand with a strong presence throughout Asia, the GATSBY
CREATIVE AWARDS initially began as the "GATSBY Student CM Awards" in
2006 from the company's desire to provide a forum for students to
express and display their creative talent. Now in the twelfth year, the
event involves participants from twelve different countries and regions
in Asia, making it the largest ever in its history.
Comment from the Judge: TERRY ITO (Director, TV producer, TV
personality, critic, author and actor)
“Just watching the
commercial made me happy, which I think is the most important thing. You
watch the video, and the product is presented. This made me want to
purchase and keep the product in my house. The casting of the characters
was also great. It was a wonderful piece.”
ISLAM LUTHFI SYAIFUL, Upon Receiving the Award
“I really
appreciate that this work piece, which was created by the school
teachers and everyone who appeared in the cast, has received such a
great prize. Thank you very much to everyone!”
