shots Awards 2012: Agency of the Year
It’s one of the big ones and it will cause debate, but who made the grade? Click here to find out.
As the announcing of shortlists nears the end, today we can reveal who will compete in one of the biggest categories of the shots Awards.
While many came close (believe us, there were several sessions of long, intense debate over this category) only five agencies made the shortlist for Agency of the Year. But while we thought our job to whittle it down to a handful was tough, the panel of international judges (see bottom of story) now has the mammoth task of choosing a winner that will be crowned at the awards ceremony on 22 November.

The shots Awards 2012 is supported by Palma Pictures with Saddington Baynes, Engage and Experience, Sarida Bossoni and 1000Volt all sponsoring categories.
