ANDYs.pngThis year, under the guidance of co-chairs Ty Montague of JWT and Michael Lebowitz of Big Spaceship, the International Andy Awards has decided to break with tradition and turn to the international advertising community to elect the 2010 award jury. electthejury.com features a list of 100 plus candidates from around the world that visitors can vote on for the next few weeks. They can also nominate other candidates before October 15. The final list of 25 jurors will then be announced on December 1.

Aussie expats Samira Ansari and Georgina Hofmann, now at JWT New York, were creative directors on the project, under JWT ECD Paul Bichler.

Says Ansari: “The site’s uploaded to bestads with all the credits. It’s getting a lot of press and tweets globally. We’re excited.”
