The ANDY Awards had earlier announced some major changes to this year’s show – including the elimination of categories – noting that in a move towards greater transparency, the organization would provide greater access to its jury process. Final details around The ANDY Awards’ upcoming Facebook Live of the event from Los Angeles, California include:
- Who: The International ANDYs 2018 Jury

Gina Grillo, President and CEO of The ADVERTISING Club stated, “From an educational perspective, we are proud to offer the first look inside an advertising award show jury room. We are confident this will offer greater insight as to what creative leaders are looking for in standout work as well as the rationale for choosing the best ideas.”
Members of the 2018 jury also released their own sharable content to get the word out on this initiative, which can be found on the ANDYs Facebook page.
