Roses Student Awards success


Congratulations are due to second year Creative Advertising students, Sam Brown Abreu and Matt Paxton for winning their category in this year’s Roses Student Creativity Awards. Sam and Matt entered the Dandy category which required the students to help launch the famous comic in its new online format. The team created a campaign neatly combining classic images from the traditional comic with computer and online imagery which communicated Dandy's new direction.

The judges were particularly pleased with the boys efforts and felt that it answered the brief very well they were so pleased in fact, that they have decided to offer them both a work placement at the Leith Agency in recognition of their success.

This is a great opportunity for Sam and Matt because the Leith Agency produces such consistently effective advertising and will be a great place for them to learn their craft. So well done chaps and keep up the good work.
