D&AD Cancels Festival, Pencils Will Be Awarded With Judging Online

Another awards festival has cancelled its live event — The Design & Art Direction organization, the UK-based outfit that promotes excellence in design and advertising.

But the group is shifting to a digital format to judge entries for its coveted Pencil Awards, which will be issued this year.

In addition, the deadline for entries has been extended to April 3, with online judging set for May and June.

The organization’s New Blood Awards, issued separately, also have a revised timetable.
