Young Guns
Young Guns is a portfolio competition awarding creative professionals 30 years and under, including designers, illustrators, entrepreneurs, and more!
2012: For the tenth edition of Young Guns, the program abandoned its 50-winner quota, opting to simply award the very best entries, no matter how big or small the class would be. The result: a lean and mean Young Guns 10 class of 34 exceptionally talented winners.
The Young Guns 10 Cube and annual, both designed by YG5 winners Andre Andreev and Dress Code, and hand-lettered by Timothy Goodman (YG7), were made of concrete (yes, a book with concrete covers!) and emblazoned with Roman numeral Xs to mark the class. The ceremony and party took place on November 8, 2012.

Thibaut Duverneix
Creative Director & Founder Gentilhomme Studio Montreal, Canada
Thibaut is one of the few creative directors in the multimedia field which masters art creation and technological design. He graduated with honors from a fine arts program in France and earned a graduate diploma in Digital Technologies in Design Art Practice from Concordia University in Montreal. In 2007, he became co-founder and partner of Dpt. a creative studio based in Montréal, Canada. He filled the role of film and interactive Director at the studio until 2013, when he founded his own creative studio Gentilhomme, specializing in the creation and production of film, interactive experiences, installations and shows that spark imagination and engage audiences.
In 2012, he was named one of the New York Art Directors Club’s ’Young Guns’ among the best creatives under 30 in the world. In 2017, Thibaut conceptualized, designed, and directed all multimedia content for Cirque du Soleil’s VOLTA which is currently touring. A year later he created and directed Tierra Whack’s mini “album-movie” WHACK WORLD, which was listed among the best music videos of the century by Pitchfork, Rollingstone, New York Times, Vice and many others. Thibaut is able to direct, manage and produce projects of any scale from conception to integration, anywhere in the world.
