They demonstrated solid and comprehensive research and planning. The creative was highly innovative, bold and quite memorable. The campaign was well executed and reflected the university's brand attributes and identity extremely well, which likely explains the strong results. Great job creating a campaign that held true to your institutional values. We enjoyed the playful branding with the visual identity -it definitely captured UCL's rebellious, think-outside-the-box personality! It was effective in communicating the campaign theme of disruptive thinking. The in-your-face tone certainly would resonate with students and get them energized.
