A SCADDY Silver Award recognizes work that demonstrates outstanding creative talent.
A SCADDY Bronze Award acknowledges a "highly commended" level of work worthy of recognition and praise for its creativity, effort, and execution. The judges determine the number of awards granted in each category based on the overall quality and impact of the submissions.
The SCADDY Awards celebrate "Creative Innovation for Future Industry Leaders," recognizing original works that push boundaries and redefine the industry's standards.
