Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity has announced the first names of the 2019 Cannes Lions juries, chosen to award the best creative work from across the globe. The jury members represent the broad spectrum of disciplines across the creative communications industry with a wide range of creative agencies, brands, media owners and production companies included.
Simon Cook, managing director of Cannes Lions, said, “Our juries are selected to represent a diverse and global mix of the most established industry talent. Our juries play a fundamental role in defining the global benchmark for creativity. They lend their world class talent to ensure that the standard of work that is celebrated on the global stage continues to raise the bar for the entire industry.”
The 27 different Lions are organized into nine Tracks–Craft, Communication, Experience, Reach, Impact, Good, Innovation, Health and Entertainment–to reflect the core disciplines that underpin and define the global branded communications industry, and streamline the Festival experience across the Awards and content program.
The first Jury lineups include Creative Data Lions, Creative Strategy Lions, Design Lions, Entertainment Lions for Music, Entertainment Lions for Sport, Film Craft Lions, Glass: The Lion for Change, Health & Wellness Lions, Innovation Lions, Mobile Lions, Outdoor Lions, Print & Publishing Lions, Radio & Audio Lions and the remaining Juries will be announced shortly.
