We are chuffed to announce that both Eicke Bettinga and Mark Jewitt have been selected for interviews on The Young Director's Award website Blog.
The Young Director Award is the only award specifically dedicated to beginners. As a result, the award has become a pioneer breaking ground for directors using new technologies and progressive techniques. The award is also recognized as the most important fringe event of the Cannes Lions, attracting over 300 participants and over 900 spectators every year. This gives considerable exposure to the winning directors, so we hope they both get nominated this year!
Both interviews refer to their most recent commercials produced here at The Gate. These include Mark Jewitt's S1 Jobs TV advert and the Scottish Government's Cocaine awareness cinema campaign, plus Eicke Bettinga's Veteran Charity TV ad for Erskine.
