Who should be the next Campaign Brief Ad Person of the Year?
The Campaign Brief Ad Person of the Year is one of our most prestigious awards presented at the Oasis Ball. In the past it has gone to someone who enjoyed personal success in the previous calendar year. As the Honour Roll shows, the award has been won by some of the biggest names in the industry.
This year, we’re opening up the criteria a tiny bit. Personal success is still one criteria but we’re also looking for people who have had an impact on the industry one way or another.
It’s akin to TIME magazine’s Person of the Year, awarded to someone who “for better or worse, has most influenced events in the preceding year”.
Campaign Brief has a few people in mind but some previous winners have also come from nominations we hadn’t considered.
So, is there someone you think warrants consideration?
Nominating them is easy. Just send their name to martin@campaignbrief.com along with a sentence or two on why you think they’re a contender.
Nominations close Monday, January 31.

You could nominate four Kats for this.
Tinning. Or aren’t I supposed to mention him these days?
It’s a real shame Tinning never won one of these. He certainly deserved it on more than one occasion. Not sure this is his year though.
From his arrival to his departure you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who has made a bigger impact on our industry. It would be a fitting tribute to six very colorful and very creative years. On that basis, Mr. T gets my vote!
Ronnie Duncan and Mike Edmonds
Nothing against Tinno but he didn’t win it in the years he had a job so he’s not going to win it for the year where he lost his job.
Andrew, Andrew, Andrew!
