2009 Roger Garlick Award finalists

The 2009 Roger Garlick Award finalists were announced last week at the Advertising and Media Association of South Africa (AMASA) AGM. According to Wayne Bischoff, head of the Roger Garlick Award portfolio, the judges were very strict this year.

Said Bischoff, “Of the 59 entries received, seven were awarded finalist status. The judges set a very high standard, so those who made finalist status are truly very worthy.”
