Campaign Poster Awards 2006
The Campaign Poster Advertising Awards seek to reward the best examples of harnessing the enduring power of the oldest universal medium. The winners reflect the amazing variety of advertising people encounter when they close their front door - on the street, from a bus, in a bus, train or taxi, or waiting for any of them. It's also on buildings, in sports grounds, airports - literally all around us.
The fact that posters are rapidly becoming the last great broadcast medium has already become such an advertising cliché that it's easy to overlook the full import of what this really means. While almost all other media are facing issues of audience fragmentation, the potency of a poster campaign remains undiminished.
Outdoor, as it is known in the UK, has never been stronger and has earned its place in a world of fragmented media with new structures, new technologies and interest from new advertisers.
The Campaign Poster Advertising Awards reflect the variety and vibrancy of the medium. The jury is made up of creative people, clients and members of the poster industry. To their great credit, the jurors never allow themselves to be seduced by brilliant but irrelevant creativity. They acknowledge that the only kind of outdoor creativity that matters is the sort that sells by making the most of the medium.
