This year, as always, LIA has lined up a jury of the top music and sound creatives in the industry to be part of the LIA 2022 Music and Sound Jury. Headed by Jury President, Sam Ashwell, Supervising Sound Designer / Partner of 750mph, this elite jury of highly recognized talent will convene in Las Vegas to judge all the entries onsite.
As the show that was Created for Creatives, LIA seeks to celebrate creatives and creativity by only inviting the best caliber judges to be part of the Jury. The belief is that when you get the best in their field to judge, the best work gets awarded. All judging is absolutely transparent and every jury member has a voice in the jury room. When judging has concluded every jury member will leave knowing the final results.

Barbara Levy, President of LIA, commented: “We are very happy that Sam Ashwell has agreed to chair the Music and Sound Jury. He is a man of exceptional talent, with such a vast expanse of knowledge, insight and experience in the field of music and sound. Under his leadership, I can just envisage how robust the in-person discussions in his jury room will be, especially as all the jury members are so well versed in terms of the depth and breadth of music.”

THE IMPOSTEROUS
This week’s guest Josy Paul, Chairman at BBDO India
LIA has partnered with Michael Knox and Graham Drew to bring you a podcast series dedicated to exploring the oft felt, but little-talked about phenomena of Imposter Syndrome within the Creative Industry. With a new episode every week, The Imposterous has been created to explore the theory that even the world’s most respected creative professionals suffer pangs of inadequacy that either stifle their potential brilliance or protect them from mediocrity. Tune in to find out how Imposter Syndrome might just be your superpower, if you let it.
Josy Paul finds freedom in places many of us feel trapped. He seeks out the revealing discussions that unravel and expose the traditions and customs that restrict us. His work is anti-establishment and is a repayment for the gifts culture gives. Josy describes himself as a trainee in the business of hope and by all reports the apprenticeship is going quite well. Hall of Fame inductee in the Advertising Club Calcutta, multiple Cannes Lions Grand Prix winner and founder of David.
