The Australasian Writers and Art Directors Association (AWARD) has today announced the line-up of Australian and international ‘Super Jurors’ who will select the 2021 AWARD School national winner.
This year’s Super Jury line-up includes an exceptional group of home-grown and international top-tier talent who follow in the steps of previous judges and some of the world’s top creative leaders such as Jeff Goodby, Judee Thaidumrong, Ben Priest, Feh Tarty and Justine Armour.
The Super Jury members are:
Mandie van der Merwe, AWARD School National co-head said: “This year’s Super Jury panel bears testament to the high regard and reputation AWARD School has enjoyed for more than three decades, and we are thrilled to have them judge this year’s AWARD School national winner. Our 2021 students have set the bar high this year in terms of creative thinking, and it will be an extremely tough choice selecting one winner out of a great many talents.”
Jack Nunn, AWARD School National co-head added: “This year’s AWARD students have put together an incredible body of work, and for that we commend them. We’re also extremely thankful to our panel of Super Jury members from here and abroad for lending us both their time and creative expertise, and are excited to find out who this year’s national winner will be.”
This year, judging will occur through an online judging portal from 22nd July until 28th July, and AWARD School state graduation nights will take place in VIC, QLD, WA and SA on Wednesday, 4th August from 6:30pm in-person (Covid-19 restrictions permitting).
