An award-winning project must: be more then just shining and lighting. It must cleary demonstrate  innovation. This can be through unique conceptualization, groundbreaking design, or novel use of technology. It is also important that the event has an impact. Whether social, economic, environmental, or cultural.

My advice to the nominees: Tell a compelling story. Make it emotional. Clearly articulate what makes your project unique. Emphasize the innovative aspects and the distinctive features that differentiate it from others.
