Top international judges Fackrell, Rowles and Rasic lined up for 2011 Axis Awards in Auckland
CAANZ has announced that the international judges for the 2011 Axis Awards are Andy Fackrell of 180 (Amsterdam), Bryan Rowles of 72 and Sunny (Los Angeles) and Dejan Rasic of Colman Rasic (Sydney).
Each of the judges has produced incredible work that has been recognised at the highest level, including Grand Prix at Cannes, pencils at D&AD and One show and everything else in between, says Tony Bradbourne, Convenor of Judges: “They will bring a completely fresh set of critical eyes to this year’s finalist list. It’s going to be great to get their thoughts on the work.”

Fackrell, being a kiwi lad, is particularly excited at being asked to judge his home town award, and this guy is seriously awarded – Grand Prix at Cannes no less, said CAANZ CEO Rick Osborne.
“These guys should collectively ensure that any work that they award metal to will be really world class,” says Bradbourne.
The judges will show their work at the Creative Function on Wednesday 30 March. Tickets go on sale at caanz.co.nz from Monday 28 February.

This is exactly what AWARD should do.
Get our Australian judges to pick the finalists and fly in five or six world class judges to award the metal.
It’s joke at the moment.
go dejan!
