Campaign Chemistry Campaign Chemistry Special Episode: BIG Awards juror Geno Schellenberger
Geno Schellenberger, senior communications manager at Havas Chicago, sat on the Campaign US BIG Awards jury last year evaluating the consumer packaged goods, entertainment and experiential/hybrid categories as an early career professional.
At the time, he was a communications manager at Havas Chicago, having joined agency life only a few months prior. Evaluating and helping to award some of the best creative work across the sector was one of his formative industry experiences.
Now, Schellenberger is responsible for growing the Havas brand, overseeing PR efforts for all Havas Chicago clients and managing internal communications for the agency.
No stranger to podcasts, he is also the founder and host of Breaking and Entering, a weekly podcast that helps aspiring advertisers break into the industry and thrive when they get there. He has hosted interviews with advertising professionals including Greg Hahn, founder of Mischief @ No Fixed Address; Seth Gaffney, founder of Preacher; Myra Nussbaum, president of Havas Chicago and Rob Schwartz, chair at TBWA\NY Group. Alison Weissbrot, editor of Campaign US, was also a guest on the show.
In this episode, Schellenberger chats about judging the BIG Awards early in his career. He shares what he learned from the experience and the value it has added to his career. He also shares advice for future jurors as well as what he hopes to see from the awards this year.
The 2023 Campaign US BIG Awards is now open for entry, and creative agencies, brands and advertising companies are invited to submit their work by August 3, 2023, to be evaluated by a jury of up-and-coming creatives.
