All the Work and the Winners – Creative Circle 2017 Annual Awards

Wanna see the actual work that won? Now you can! iDidTht showcases all the work that the Creative Circle selected as the best of the best at the 2017 Annual Awards held in Joburg last week. 

The Creative Circle promotes creativity in advertising in South Africa. All finalists were winners of the Creative Circle Monthly Awards during 2017. Work was judged on the basis of innovation, quality and relevance to the brand, target audience and chosen media. Because most of us are too busy creating even more kickass work, collecting grey water or even just facing upcoming corruption trials, we went and gathered all the winning work for you, which means you can find out more about each company involved. 😇

And in other, equally important news, Pete Khoury, CCO at TBWA\Hunt Lascaris, has been named the new Chairman of the Creative Circle following the two-year tenure of Xolisa Dyeshana, CCO at Joe Public. Big shout-out to Xolisa and congrats Pete! Another major winner on the night was Alistair King, co-founder of King James Group, who was inducted into the Creative Circle Hall of Fame. We bow down Alistair!
