Canadians in Cannes woke up Monday to 10 more shortlist nods.
FCB Toronto, Lg2 Toronto and Leo Burnett Toronto are continuing their strong showings at the festival, with the agencies all getting shortlist mentions in the Direct category for work with the Canadian Down Syndrome Society (CDSS), SickKids and IKEA Canada, respectively. The CDSS and SickKids work has already picked up Health Lions.
FCB also made it onto the Creative Data shortlist, the only Canadian agency to do so.
Meanwhile, Jam3 Toronto and Critical Mass Calgary each picked up their first shortlist mentions of the festival, both in Mobile. Jam3 and the National Film Board earned their mention for the re-release of 2012 documentary Bear 71 in VR. Critical Mass shortlisted for its 360 video work with Nissan North America, which included a tie-in between the automaker’s Rogue model and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
