Two Charles Sturt University (CSU) student advertising teams have again been named as finalists in the annual 2010 International Advertising Association’s (IAA) National inter-University ‘Big Idea’ competition. Ms Anne Llewellynn, lecturer in advertising, at the School of Communication and Creative Industries in Bathurst, said, “Teams from the University’s Kajulu Communications have won the national competition five times in the last seven years. The competition attracts entries from all IAA-accredited institutions around Australia and the IAA invites two teams from each to submit an industry-standard professional campaign presentation for an Australian charity or not-for-profit organisation. This year, the client was the outback charity, Frontier Services. For any team to make the top three is a huge achievement, and I couldn’t be happier or hope for more than to have both Charles Sturt University teams - Kajulu Blue and Kajulu Red - as two of the three finalists.” Congratulating all the teams in the competition, Mr Tim Parker, chair of the IAA judging panel, said, “All of the judges were stunned by the depth and the quality of the submissions, which is a tribute to the smart young people involved and the faculties they represent”.
