“In the morning you’ll unleash your creative genius on a real campaign brief from our charity partner Unicef UK. In the afternoon, you’ll share your genius creative with a high-profile judging panel and audience. Then in the evening, one team will be crowned Creative Shootout Winner 2016 at the after party (where there won’t be a black tie in sight.)”

Agencies and in-house teams have until 6th November to enter.
