Do You Have What It Takes?

If you are the type who likes advertising, who wants to create cool ads, showcase your great ideas. Then you might want to check out the Young Guns Winners for 2009. If you are below 30 years old and love advertising, and you are creative then you might want to join the Young Guns. An awards was open last March and the best of the best was awarded last November.

And the Winner’s are: (drum roll please)

2009 Professional YoungGuns of the Year Michael Canning & Kieran Antill from Leo Burnett Australia are the 2009 YoungGuns of the Year; the best young creative talent globally as selected by the prestigious YoungGuns Jury. Michael and Kieran received a number of awards for their work this year at YoungGuns, and it is for this, and primarily ‘Vote Earth”, that they were named YoungGuns of the Year.

Aaron Koblin was one of the dozen or so artists carrying the banner for data visualization and, more specifically, the Processing programming language and environment at MOMA’s 2008 landmark next-gen design exhibition, “Design and the Elastic Mind.” The 26-year-old had two pieces in the show.

So if you got what it takes, maybe next year you can try getting into the awards yourself.

Included the video for you to enjoy the creations made by the 2009 winners. Enjoy
