London - Saatchi & Saatchi’s New Directors’ Showcase (NDS) is always a
highlight of Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, and each year reveals
a showreel of the globe’s hottest new directors, carefully curated by the
Saatchi & Saatchi Worldwide Creative Board, with a unique live element
conceived by a team of some of the most talented creative and technical wizards
the world has to offer. This year’s NDS
will be revealed during Cannes Lions at the Palais des Festivals on Thursday 19th
June.
After Cannes there will be a series of NDS screenings around the world. There
will be an event at the Barbican in London on Thursday 3rd July, where
the reel of directors will be screened, followed by a panel discussion
featuring influencers from the worlds of film, advertising and creativity. The
Barbican is a world-class arts and learning organisation with an ambitious
international programme that crosses art forms: there will be a special NDS
screening and panel discussion in its Cinemas.
As well as the events in Cannes and London NDS screenings will pop up in;
Milan on 2nd July at the Teatro dell’Arte Triennale; New York on
Thursday 17th July at Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM); and Shanghai
on 21st October at Shanghai Center Theater. Other cities on the NDS world tour will
include Los Angeles and Moscow. More dates
and venues will be announced shortly.
