ADFEST, Tokyo (20-23rd July)




I just returned from a week in Tokyo as Editor of ADFESTbuzz and Lotus News atADFEST (Asia Pacific Advertising Festival).

ADFEST is an award show that’s passionate about nurturing creativity in the Asia Pacific. One of my favorite interviewees was Kazuyoshi Hayakawa, director at Camp KAZ Productions.

Not only is Kazuyoshi hugely talented (his commercials are famous in Japan and Thailand), but he’s the smiliest person I’ve ever met, and he has one of those wonderfully expressive faces that you never tire of looking at.

We had to speak via his translator, which is never the same as interviewing someone directly, but our conversations gave me a small taste of his philosophy and talent.
