NZCC hears that New Zealand will have a record representation on various juries at Cannes this year. Although not yet official sources say that Saatchi’s Mike O’Sullivan will judge Film, Clemenger BBDO’s Duster will judge Outdoor, TBWA\Whybin’s Andy Blood will judge Promo, AIM Proximity’s Matt Shirtcliffe will judge Direct, and Kevin Blight from Mitchell’s will judge the Media Lions.
In addition, NZCC hears that Saatchi’s Tom Eslinger will chair the Cyber Lions jury, the first kiwi to chair a Cannes jury.

Tom Eslinger is an American.
WOW.Now, what all the fuss about over at LOWE?? Laying off long time staffers Daniel & Paul? That’s loyalty for ya!Hmmm..
Not to mention the accents of Mike O and Andy Blood!Still, if their hearts are in NZ, which they seem to be, I guess that counts as ‘kiwis’ judging?
Most of the CDs I know (the good ones, anyway) are poms.
