Pictured: Sid Lee’s work for Fuel Transport, which picked up four mentions on the Design shortlist.
Correction: An earlier version of this article included the incorrect logo for Innocence Canada and incorrectly attributed work for Fuel Transport to Sid Lee Montreal. It also had an incorrect count for the Media shortlist and did not originally include Juniper Park\TBWA’s shortlisted work for Miller Coors. Strategy regrets the errors.
Canada had a strong showing on the shortlists announced in Cannes Tuesday, particularly within the Design category, picking up 19 mentions.
Among the agencies recognized on that shortlist was Sid Lee, which accounts for several of the nods for its work with Fuel Transport, Sommet Place Ville-Marie and Banque Nationale. Leo Burnett’s “Cook This Page,” and Lg2 Toronto’s “Give-a-Care,” which have both already nabbed Lions, also received mentions on the Design shortlist.
“Cook This Page” also made an appearance on the Media shortlist, where Canadian work picked up seven mentions. Among the shortlisted entries is also FCB Toronto’s “Down Syndrome Answers,” which has already won Lions in Health and PR.
Despite doing well in Design, Canada was a no-show on the Product Design shortlist and the Entertainment Lions.
However, Canada did pick up two mentions in the Entertainment for Music category, including for Drake’s album Views.
Check out the full list of shortlisted work below and keep visiting strategy this week for more from Cannes Lions 2017.
