While in his 2D foundation course in 2005 at the School of Art, Design and Media at Nanyang Technological University, despite the dean, Isaac Kerlow's insistence that the foundation students were not ready, student Jeffrey Xu submitted a project completed from my foundation course and won the Gold in Art Direction award under his advertising submission titled "Timberland branding." Kudos, Jeffrey! His work was exhibited during the Crowbar Awards 2006 and published in the exhibition catalog (on page 18), under Advertising.
