After almost 2 years of the pandemic induced break D&AD reopened its door to the public. D&AD Shift is the organisation’s design and advertising night school. During the event Class of 2021 presented their work, received their diplomas and networked with the representatives of the industry.

I documented D&AD Annual '19 Launch.
Having worked for D&AD on regular basis, mostly covering their events and festivals, on this occasion I was asked to photograph Annual ’19.
Each year, D&AD’s Annual brings together the best of the best in creative work; a bible of inspiring projects from around the globe for anyone who is part of the design and advertising industry. In 2019, the book utilises the creative efforts of current D&AD President Harriet Devoy and Richard Turley, her chosen designer.
How can the creative industries respond to climate change and global warming? With this in mind, D&AD facilitated 'Our toughest brief yet' and invited climate change activists and creative industry leaders to have their say on how we can take responsibility and use its collective creative powers to drive possible solutions for global warming and the environmental crisis at hand. The debate saw a passionate discussion on how creatives can find solutions to climate change in advertising. Here are some of my photos from the night.
It was this time of the year for the New Blood Academy Pitch Day at the D&AD’s HQ.

New Blood Festival took place 11 - 13 July at The Old Truman Brewery, London, with a private view on 10 July.
