FCB Canada is taking home the most trophies among 12 Canadian agencies (and one brand) at this year’s Clio Awards.
The agency won a pair of Golds in the PR category for Canadian Down Syndrome Society’s “Endangered Syndrome” campaign, as well as a Bronze for the Fountain Tire “Fan Bods” program.
Sister agency FCB/Six also earned a Gold, a Silver and 2 Bronze for Black & Abroad’s “Go Back To Africa,” which had previously picked up a Grand Prix in Cannes earlier this year. Anomaly Toronto was the other Gold-winning Canadian agency, snagging a trophy for its “Oh Henry! 4:25” program.
BBDO Toronto didn’t win a Gold, but managed to earn three Silver and four Bronze for its work with Right to Play, all of which came in the Film Technique categories (the agency worked with Skin & Bones and Moonlighting Films on production for the campaign). The agency also picked up a Bronze Clio for the M&Ms “Finger Lickin’ Good” campaign.
A couple production companies also picked up Film Technique Clios for Rethink’s “Risk Everything” campaign for the Ontario Government: Scouts Honour in direction and cinematography, and Grayson Matthews in music. Grayson Matthews was also the lone Canadian winner in the Clios Music awards (also announced on Wednesday), earning Silvers for its work on “Risk Everything,” as well as for Egale Blood Surrogates’s “Too Gay To Give” campaign by Sid Lee.
The Grand Clio winners will be revealed at a gala in New York later this month. The full list of Canadian winners can be found below.
