Goafest 2012: Creativeland Asia bags Grand Prix on Day 2 of Creative Abbys

(Editor’s note: As the Awards Governing Council has not assigned weightages to metals, we have followed the Olympic system of scoring for the Abby Awards again this year, according to which most Grand Prix awards scores over most Golds, scores over most Silvers and, finally, most Bronzes.)

On the final night of Goafest 2012, Creativeland Asia picked up a Grand Prix for Audi ‘A8L 3D Experience’ in Integrated, and a Gold as well for the same campaign.

Overall Ogilvy & Mather India topped the medal tally of Creative Abbys presented on 20 and 21 April 2012.
