The Immortal Awards has today unveiled the shortlist and finalists from North America, following a virtual round of judging on Friday 15th October, hosted in partnership with global partners Nice Shoes and regional partners Whitehouse Post.
In total, the 16 Finalists from the Canadian and US judging days made this year’s shortlist. The 16 projects were then debated by a regional jury in a virtual round of discussions to determine which projects, if any, should receive finalist status and proceed. Eight North American entries have been selected as finalists and have qualified for the global round of judging.
The final, global round of judging will then take place on Thursday 18th November, in which all regional finalists will compete for an Immortal Award or Commendation status.
Those on the North American regional jury were Kathleen Hall (Microsoft), Tiffany Rolfe (R/GA), Tim Gordon (Droga5 New York), Davud Karbassioun (Pulse Films), Peter Ignazi (Cossette), Alexis Bronstorph (TAXI), Josh Stein (McCann Canada) and Zak Mroueh (Zulu Alpha Kilo).
