The Radio Bureau reveals judges for 2020 ORCA

The judges for The Radio Bureau’s annual Outstanding Radio Creative Awards (ORCA) have today been announced. Representing varied disciplines across the industry, the panel is well equipped to crown 2020’s radio copywriting royalty.

The judges are:
– James Mok – Managing Director / VMLY&R Auckland

– Leisa Wall – Executive Creative Director / FCB New Zealand
– JP Twaalfhoven – Senior Writer / Clemenger BBDO

Each year The Radio Bureau set out to recognise and endorse outstanding radio creative with the ORCA. TRB aims to encourage creatives in the advertising industry to let their talents loose and explore the many options afforded by radio.

ORCA is open to any creatives that have their campaign creative air on a New Zealand commercial radio station during the competition period (16 September 2019-6 July 2020). Judging will be based on four criteria: creativity, execution, effectiveness and innovation.

The Grand ORCA winner will take home a $10,000 cash prize and a $10,000 client radio campaign. There will also be an opportunity to win the People’s Choice Award – a $2,000 cash prize and a $5,000 client radio campaign.

Entries are exceptionally easy to complete, with a few simple details and an audio upload required. TRB will be selecting a spot prize winner on 1 June. https://www.trb.co.nz/orca
