This year 735 English entries were received in 62 categories and 212 entries in the Spanish contest (up 44) in 45 categories. English and Spanish language entries were judged and scored separately. A minimum of seven peer judges from other NATAS chapters scored each entry on a scale from 1 to 10 on Content, Creativity and Execution.
