Bbdo, Jam3, Taxi And Ddb Vancouver Win Pencils At The One Show's Second Night

BBDO adds to its country-leading Pencil tally with a gold for its work with the Canadian Paralympic Committee.

Four Canadian agencies picked up Pencils at the second and final night of The One Club for Creativity's 46th annual One Show on Friday, including a gold for BBDO Toronto.

BBDO, which led all Canadian agencies with six Pencils in the show's first night, picked up its third gold in the Social Media, Livestream category for "The Paralympic Network" execution on behalf of the Canadian Paralympic Committee.

"For years, the Canadian Paralympics struggled to find the coverage they deserved in traditional media channels," BBDO chief creative officer Denise Rossetto told The Message. "Our program changed everything by recruiting fans, athletes and ambassadors to sign up to livestream our events to their social networks with our first-of-its-kind app... The Paralympic Network is the story of how a small but passionate group of influencers became broadcasters, making the 2018 Winter Paralympics the most watched in Canadian history."



Jam3 earned two bronze Pencils, one in Digital Craft, Cross-Channel UX/UI—Digital/Physical and a second in Interactive & Online, Interactive Digital Installations, for its "Unlock the Drop—ComplexCon" work for Adidas Originals.

Taxi Toronto earned a bronze in the Direct Marketing, Craft—Art Direction category, for its "#Unignorable" campaign on behalf of the United Way.

Meanwhile, although it was officially entered by McDonald's agency We Are Unlimited, DDB Vancouver was part of the multi-agency credits for "The Flip," which saw the QSR flip its iconic M logo upside down for International Women's Day in 2018. The campaign won five golds and three silvers.

Best in Show honours went to Wieden+Kennedy Portland, with Park Pictures Los Angeles and Joint Portland, for Nike's "Dream Crazy."

Other top honours, based on cumulative One Show Pencils and Merits across multiple disciplines, included:

  • Agency of the Year—Wieden+Kennedy Portland

  • In-house Agency of the Year—Spotify

  • Network of the Year—DDB Worldwide

  • Creative Holding Company of the Year—Omnicom Group

  • Production Company of the Year—MPC

  • Client of the Year — Nike


Best of Discipline winners were as follows:

David Rubin, chief marketing officer at The New York Times, won the 2019 CMO Pencil selected by a jury of 10 leading global CMOs. Rubin won on the basis of the Times' "The Truth is Worth It" campaign as the single most impactful idea on a brand's business in the past year.

The work by New York's Droga5 was chosen from among the year's 20 highest-scoring entries, including Best of Discipline winners, narrowly beating out Nike's "Dream Crazy" campaign.

The Penta Pencil, which honours the agency and brand who have together created stellar creative work for the past five years, went to adam&eveDDB London and client John Lewis & Partners.

A total of 569 Pencils—180 gold, 178 silver and 211 bronze—were awarded at The One Show this year, which attracted a total of 19,445 submissions from 73 countries.
