Reflections on D&AD

Nadia – 06:41am..

Ben– It's never too late. And don't ever print at Xerox on cold harbour lane.

Zac –Your idea is never good enough, and will never be.

Roman – When you'r stuck, just start making stuff and it will come along

Adriano –Energy drink are not the only thing that keep you awake

Alicia It's so important to have a partner you can trust and don't mind spending 96 hours with (and still have fun with!)

Katy: Alicia is gold dust. I'm so lucky.If you love your idea you'll do anything for it. If you don't, you won't.

Bea – There's always more work to an idea, you never finish pushing it.

Seb – Learn Adobe sooner.

Orla find time to have a beer with your partner and laugh over shrek is life shrek is love.

Chloe – It's never finished. Never.

Nunu – Work with passion and fun or you'll never achieve stuff you'll be proud of.

Owen – Don't just work on D&AD, remember other things. Like group scabs .

Nihal – Sweat the small stuff

Laurens – I need a shave

Nick – Have other projects in the back of your mind, you might crack them while working on something else.

Dennis – Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. Work. Feedback. Repeat. 1 day before deadline: Finish the crafting!

Laura – 24 hours is and isn't a long amount of time

Ethan – Be single minded, don't spread yourself out. 1 pencil for 1 brief is better than none for 5 briefs. Script writing will hone your idea massively from the start.

With D&AD over, how will you relax this weekend?

Zac – Cannes Future Lions

Seb –Work on Grabble. The whole time, like from 9am - 9pm. Both days.

Laurens – Watch CBBC

Laura – Eat pringles!

Katy – Wash / put on a wash / clean / do some cleaning.

Roman – Find one of those bow toy and start a career

Alicia – Pet a kangaroo

Matt –no comment

Chloe –Twitch uncontrollably and stare into space a lot.

Bea – Remind my friends I'm still alive

Nick – Feed my brain

Dennis – Catch up with my Tinder social life.

Ethan – Catch up with my dogs at home / Tinder

Nihal – It's Always Sunny in Peckham. (https://www.facebook.com/events/1206740996021280/)

Ben – Wet the cheese

Owen – By going outside.
