“Outside of the obvious set of credentials that each jury member brings to the table, we look for that trust factor,” O’Rourke added.
“Entrusting this accomplished group of colleagues with the Shortlist means that entrants are secure in knowing that their work is seen with open eyes and held in the utmost regard, viewed not as an entry, but as a collective effort of many, aiming to create something unique, heartfelt, and memorable.”
