Slovenian Advertising Festival (SOF)
About
SOF has its roots in the Yugoslav propaganda film festival in Portorož. As a Slovenian festival, it established itself in 1991 under the auspices of the Golden Drum Advertising Festival of New Europe, which developed into an international festival of creativity, while SOF became an independent central event of the advertising profession in Slovenia.
SOF marked its 25th anniversary in 2016, featuring more than 300 ads in the competition programme. "Only good stories survive," was the festival's slogan that year; and the organisers used the opportunity to say that the festival offers "exceptional stories which have and will continue to survive".
SOF's comprehensively designed congress program opens a discussion on topical professional issues and enables the exchange of knowledge, experiences, ideas and views on the further development of the profession. SOF therefore rewards and promotes creativity and entrepreneurship and brings new knowledge. With its professional program and competition, it significantly influences the development of the Slovenian advertising profession, and examines its role in the wider society.
The competition
In 2019, SOF significantly restructured the competition programme, which remained relatively consistent for the 2020 edition.
The 2020 (29th) edition of SOF was characterized by reliable, meaningful and meaningful communication methods and approaches that enhance brand recognition and the role of brands and add value to them. It looked for ways to create a communication ecosystem that is acceptable and targeted to all stakeholders (advertisers, agencies, media and also consumer).
