Judging criteria includes:

• Originality, visual appeal and creativity of the show logo and/or “theme” material.
• How effectively the individual marketing elements connect with the overall show brand.
• Ease with which the audience correlates the branding back to the show.
• How well the branding speaks to the experiential value attendees can expect from the show.
• How well each branding effort meets its marketing objectives.
