Carte Blanche for Creatives 2012 Version Has Launched

astral media [1]Canadian outdoor advertising service Astral Out-of-Home, a division of Astral Media Inc. [1], has launched the third edition of Carte Blanche for Creatives [2], a contest which recognizes the best in advertising creativity. Carte Blanche is back for a third consecutive year with a new website, greater opportunity for storytelling and a firestorm of debate.
The contest challenges agency creatives to work on a piece without a brief, submit it to their community for comments and then go through a voting process. The only condition: creating good advertising. The winner will get an Astral Out-of-Home campaign and a trip to The Cannes Lions.

Last year, more than 1,200 people registered nationwide, and 14,500 people visited the creative gallery, exchanging fascinating comment between themselves on the website.

According to Nathalie DorĂ©, Vice-President, Marketing and Creativity, Astral Out-of-Home, “The success of 2011, combined with the quality of the art pieces, inspired us to continue to challenge creativity and to promote the impressive and talented creatives who manage to express themselves simply through an ad face.”
