A trend I have been observing for several years now, and which continues to grow, is the homogenization of advertising. Advertising campaigns and brands are becoming virtually indistinguishable from one another. This is especially evident in television advertising, which often appears monotonous and predictable. However, there are exceptions. This year, at G8, we will focus on identifying and rewarding creators who can stand out from the crowd and offer original ideas in advertising.

The biggest challenge for modern creators is staying relevant. Paradoxically, the more talented you become, the more people, projects, and tasks demand your attention. The best ideas often emerge at the intersection of different phenomena, making it crucial to be knowledgeable in a variety of fields. However, the volume of information is constantly growing, making it increasingly difficult to navigate. Furthermore, social media algorithms create information bubbles, making it difficult to access truly inspiring content. To stay on top of your creative juices, you need to actively seek out new sources and approaches, as well as develop critical thinking skills.

The main criterion for evaluating a project for me is envy. When I look at a piece of work and a little jealous worm starts to itch inside, I know the project has failed. This inner voice always knows when to step up. Envy is a signal that the project is truly worthy of attention and attracts interest.

Branding plays an important role in my life, and sometimes it becomes too much. In the modern world, there is an excess of branding, which overshadows uniqueness and originality. We'd like to see more unconventional approaches to branding at the competitions, as they're rare and offer fresh ideas. Unique branding can bring novelty and inspiration, standing out from the crowd. The winning projects are those that create a complete user journey based on meaning, not just a collection of pretty fragments. This statement is true for any scale and format of projects, emphasizes Veronika Kosinskaya, curator of the "Events" category. It is important that every element of interaction is thought out and not just attracts attention, but also creates value for the user.
