CREATIVE

BE CURIOUS BE CREATIVE BE CONFIDENT

PROFESSIONALLY

Creative city, creatives united That moment when creativity bubbles up, percolates through, emerges – that left-field thought, that image, that form of words, that combination of sight and sound, of image and detail, of editing and expression: that moment when you just know you have nailed it.

Might be for a client brief. Could be CleverTech (it’s a thing, btw). Maybe your own singular, distinctive creativity.

It’s that moment when things just fall into place. The transformative fusion of thinking and action.

It’s that moment when we all realise that there is nothing like being a creative.

Nothing like that bank sheet of paper, whether metaphorical or the actual of an ever-blinking cursor – that test of you.

And nothing like the moment of release when creativity comes together.

However many times your creativity is tested, however familiar some types of work may be, none of us lose that

moment of belief. It’s the minted creative newness which appeals.

It’s deep in the soul of creators to have their creativity tested. To put their thinking forward and have others interpret as they will.

And that’s what we’re recognising and celebrating tonight. Tested creativity.

Excellence in multiple areas. Inspiration.

All the decisions tonight have been made by a panel of independent judges chosen across many creative areas.

Hard calls, nearly all.

Enjoy your evenings. When Bath’s creative tribes of come together and when clever thinkers, makers and doers unite, then enjoyment and value is created for us all.

And yeah. Creativity’s the winner.

Always…
