The Kancil Awards 2022 has just wrapped up with a bang. Hailed as the “Oscars” of the Malaysian advertising industry, it is the largest and most prestigious advertising awards competition celebrating creative works from all over the nation in an effort to recognise home-grown creative excellence.
There are two divisions to the competition, namely the PETRONAS Kancil Awards, which sees to entries from renowned corporations and organisations, and Student Kancil x sCooler Awards, an opportunity for driven students to send in their work to be assessed by industry experts and win acclaimed awards. The Student Kancil x sCooler Awards is open to all students, Malaysian or otherwise, studying in local schools, colleges and universities. Participants may submit class assignments, personal projects or work specially made for the competition. Entries are judged by luminaries in the Malaysian advertising scene – group heads, creative directors and executive creative directors, based on masterful creative skill, talent and artistry that goes into bringing an idea to life.

Digital Media Design student Elaine Phoo was awarded the ‘Student of the Year’ award for her outstanding works. She had won Gold for her visual design for digital platforms, titled ‘Social Trend x Old Stuff’, a series of motion graphic works fusing objects from the ‘80s with popular modern media platforms to imagine what if social media existed in the ‘80s.
She also won two Bronzes in the Best Film & Audio Craft – Visual Effects & Motion Graphics category. ‘Punctuation’s World’ takes punctuation mark symbols and turns them into visual shapes, bringing out their characteristics and extraordinary charm to lead the public into the world of reading.
