Talent doesn’t need a college degree.
Talent works through the night, and dreams through the day.
Talent says the unsayable and makes the unmakeable.
Talent is relentless, unwavering, and different.
Class of 2019 announced. Meet the talent who will be heading to this year's 12-week night school.
What is D&AD New Blood Shift?
D&AD New Blood Shift is our intensive night school program that places an emphasis on raw, untrained talent. Shift compels its students to make the best creative work of their life. This is accomplished through workshops, talks by those at the top of their game and real client briefs that will help you transform your creative talents into tangible, marketable skills that can excel you forward into a career in the creative industries.
Shift runs from February to May. We meet two evenings a week and occasional Saturdays in agencies around New York.
