Critics Welcome

Award: Shortlist

Shortlist / Press & Outdoor / Poster Campaigns / 2024

Critics Welcome brought the art of film criticism to everyday life through self-criticizing OOH.

As the hometown of many legendary film critics, Chicago loves debating film. To support this obsession and generate interest at the 59th Chicago International Film Festival, we created OOH that criticized itself.

By celebrating the art of film criticism, we got everyone in Chicago discussing film.
Because people who discuss films, go to every film they can. Even the bad ones.
