The NEW is for new kinds of advertising ideas that highlight new roles for brands and agencies. Whether based on emerging media technologies [AR/VR/tech/data], acting in the world [actions/brand experiences], or new types of ideas and supply chains [influencer, native]. The NEW is a petri dish for growing new advertising disciplines until they are fully mature. 

Single Categories

Augmented Reality  Digital Experiences that combine live action imagery (either through a camera or direct sight) with CG imagery (such as an overlay or a manipulated camera feed) in either a practical, useful or creative fashion. This could be in any medium, such as a mobile device, computer device or live experience. Entrant needs to provide a case study that explains the concept and thoroughly conveys the actual AR experience in detail as the user would experience.
Brand Action  Brand actions are activities that may inform advertising but are distinct from it. Programs such as Small Business Saturday, real work stunts like Red Bull Stratos, PR stunts like McWhopper, and one-offs such as REI OptOutside are examples.
Creative Technology  Technology deployed in creative ways. The technology can be used to facilitate the telling of the story, or be the story itself. The jury is looking for clever and innovative uses of technology, whether they be new ways of using old technology, or new technology used in a unique, innovative, groundbreaking fashion.
Creative Use of Data  This category celebrates the most innovative uses and incorporation of data into creative executions.
Experiential  Live experiences that allow people to interact and engage with a product, service or brand.

Virtual Reality  Digital Experiences that use a screen device to replace a person’s vision and provide an immersive or interactive experience.
