    NEW YORK --

    After winning several of the highest honors in the historic ADC 100th Annual Awards last week, DDB Group Germany Berlin is the top-ranked agency in the world, according to the ADC 100th Annual Awards Global Creative Rankings released today (6/15) by The One Club for Creativity.

    DDB Group Germany was awarded the highly coveted ADC Black Cube for Best of Show for “The Uncensored Library,” working with MediaMonks Hilversum and Blockworks London on behalf of Reporters Without Borders.  The work also received five Gold Cubes, one Bronze, a Best of Discipline win in Experiential Design and the ADC Designism Cube for the entry that best encourages positive societal and political change.

    The ADC 100th Annual Awards Global Creative Rankings are determined by the cumulative point totals of eligible Cubes and Merits won.

    "The Uncensored Library"–a virtual library containing censored news articles from around the world, written by journalists who have been killed, jailed or exiled by governments–can be found in Minecraft, a popular video game where users can build virtual worlds out of blocks and create their own storylines. Freedom of the press can thus be served within the confines of a video game, providing access to players in countries where such journalists’ work is otherwise unavailable.

    “Challengers” Earns Actor-Producer Zendaya 2024 Gothams Spotlight Tribute

    Wednesday, November 20, 2024

    Emmy Award-winner Zendaya will receive the Gotham Film & Media Institute’s Spotlight Tribute for her performance as Tashi Donaldson in the Luca Guadagnino-directed film Challengers, at the 34th edition of The Gothams, taking place live and in person on Monday, December 2, at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

    The Spotlight Tribute was created by The Gotham in order to recognize phenomenal efforts by individuals in film and television who captivated global audiences with the biggest projects of the year. With the Spotlight Tribute, The Gotham will honor Zendaya’s remarkable work as leading-actress and producer on the Amazon MGM Studios box-office hit that broke into the cultural zeitgeist, and was celebrated by critics and audiences worldwide.

    “Zendaya’s magnetic portrayal of Tashi Donaldson in Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers exemplifies the creative excellence that The Gotham celebrates,” said Jeffrey Sharp, executive director of The Gotham. “Her performances in Dune: Part One, Dune: Part Two, and Euphoria have made her one of the most captivating actors of her generation. Her multi-layered performance at the heart of Challengers earned widespread acclaim, including a nomination for Best Feature at this year’s Gothams. We look forward to honoring her work with our Spotlight Tribute.”

    From Academy Award nominated visionary filmmaker Guadagnino, Challengers stars two-time Emmy winner Zendaya as Tashi Duncan (who becomes Tashi Donaldson after marrying Art Donaldson), a former tennis prodigy turned coach and a force of nature who makes no apologies for her game on and off the court.
