Cannes: Design category shortlists eight entries from Hong Kong and China

Three of the five Hong Kong entries are produced by Leo Burnett. 'Hidden sound campaign', developed for Zoo Records by Leo Burnett Hong Kong, has already been awarded with a gold Lion in the Direct category yesterday.

'Green Pedestrian Crossing,' developed for China Environmental Protection Foundation by DDB Shanghai, has also been shortlisted for the Outdoor category.

In contrast to the Cyber category shortlist which is clearly dominated by Japan, the Design shortlist includes entries from across the region, including 10 from Japan, seven from India and three from New Zealand.
