The Immortal Awards Jury Gathers in New York for Final Round of Judging

The final round of judging for the 2019 Immortal Awards is now complete, following a day of intense deliberation at MPC NY.

In total, 74 projects were on the shortlist and they were hotly contested by this year’s jury, comprised of leading names across the brand, agency, production and post worlds.

Matt Cooper, Founder of Little Black Book, comments: “The jury was amazing. I’ve been lucky enough to have seen a lot of juries together in judging rooms, but I have rarely seen a jury gel like this. We had a great cross section of the industry from post, production agency and brand and within that group a collection of people who have made and are continuing to make Immortal work. It was great to be a part of the event and we are really pleased with what we have to show this year as the winners.”
