8 MONTHS. 8 BRIEFS. 8 BIG NAME JUDGES.
Young Glory is a worldwide creativity competition devoted to awarding creative consistency.
Each month, you respond to a brief. The idea is then judged.
At the end, all the scores are added up and the winning team takes home the prize.
My partner Slade Stone and I are midway through the competition.
I’ll let you know if we win.
