Alumna Lucie Langston, who majored in Communication Design, won a Golden Nail for her comic “Through the Dunes.” The video “RAP SPRICHT WAHRHEIT” by students Leonie Neuhäusel, Linda Zwick, and Teresa Peil took home a Bronze Nail.
In the 57th edition of the ADC competition, the 29 juries met exclusively online for the second time and discussed Germany’s best creative works under the festival motto “Superpower Creativity – Always Finds a Way.” The awards were presented on Friday, May 6, 2021.
Gold for Lucie Langston
The multi-award-winning comic “Through the Dunes” by Lucie Langston has now also won the Golden Pin. Jury comment: “A walk in the Mainzer Sand nature reserve, drinking tea, and baking cake. Seemingly everyday things are vividly interwoven in the graphic novel with an autobiographical exploration of feelings and fears during the lockdown—and in such a dreamlike, beautiful, and melancholic way that you’re completely captivated by this story.”
Lucie Langston’s work was supervised by Prof. Monika Aichele.
Bronze for Leonie Neuhäusel, Linda Zwick, and Teresa Peil
Leonie Neuhäusel, Linda Zwick, and Teresa Peil won bronze for their video “RAP SPRICHT WAHRHEIT.”
For four months, a seminar at the Department of Design at Mainz University of Applied Sciences explored the highly topical social issue of fake news: One of the resulting projects is the video by the three students Leonie Neuhäusel, Linda Zwick, and Teresa, which has now been awarded bronze at the ADC Talents Awards 2021.
The three students collaborated with a rapper and a sound designer to bring their idea to life, using rap and visual language to educate a young audience. The result is a fantastic video that sticks in your mind and stays in your ears.
The project was supervised by Prof. Charlotte Schröner and Prof. Stefan Enders.
