Media Design School passionately believes in benchmarking its ideas against the best in the world, and has always encouraged its student teams to enter their ideas into international awards.
For over 15 years now, Media Design School graduates have gone on to win global accolades as professional creatives in a way that has transformed their careers and lives.
Earlier this month was one of their proudest moments yet, when AdSchool graduate Tom Paine of Y&R Auckland was named 2016’s most awarded Creative Director in the world. The accolade was bestowed on him by the Big Won rankings, which is compiled annually by UK-based advertising bible The Directory.
Better yet, Tom’s McWhopper campaign, which won numerous D&AD pencils and two Cannes Grand Prix awards in 2016, was also ranked in the same report as the most awarded campaign of 2016 globally.
