Ellie Jones and Avani Maan win the 2013 Marsden Inch / Media Design AdSchool Scholarships

The winners of the 2013 Marsden Inch / Media Design AdSchool Scholarship are Ellie Jones and Avani Maan.

This is the 3rd year Marsden Inch has provided the winning team a substantial cash prize, and directors Cindy Mitchener, Jeneal Rohrback and Rob Roydhouse comment that each year, the standard of work from these students just keeps getting better and better.

Says Rohrback “The simplicity of the ideas this year were spot on. They were brilliantly campaignable across multiple platforms, which shows that they understand ‘big’ ideas. They also ‘get’ the most basic need of the idea – that it needs to engage, be effective and understood in a millisecond. Ellie and Avani showed all that, plus exceptional talent, personality and most importantly grit, and this is what saw them take the prize over other close behind contenders.

“Marsden Inch continues to look for ways to strengthen its support of young talent getting into the advertising industry, reflecting our creds for “helping people get jobs”, however possible.

“Our strong desire to mentor and support graduates, of any discipline, into the industry, remains a core pillar of our business and philosophy.”
