Honours Results Aug 2020

Congratulations to our latest Honours recipients, your hard work has paid off and you can now use your honours after your name as recognition of a worthy achievement.

Thank you everyone for your patience in waiting for the results to be announced, I know that it was a long wait.

A very big thank you to our judges who judged under very difficult conditions. As it is most important that judging of the digital panels is done on a correctly calibrated projection system we held two live sessions – one in Bloemfontein, with Koot Marais, Nico Smit & Francois van der Watt judging, ably assisted by Quintin Terblanche on the computer and one in Vanderbijlpark, with Martin Barber, Johan Brits, Dirk Heyns, Laetitia Kenny, Christiaan Kotze and Francois Roux judging and ably assisted by Jannie de Beer on the computer where strict social distancing was observed. We then held a zoom meeting to discuss the panels and were joined here by Evelyn Gibson.

Audio Visual judging was done individually on correctly calibrated and, where possible, with large projection facilities, by myself, Anne d’Oliveira, Adri van Oudheusden, Chris Daly, Paul Rixom, Wayne Webb and Johann van der Walt in China! Following the individual judging we also had a zoom meeting to discuss all the applications. Live individual feedback is going to be given by one of the judges to each of the unsuccessful AV applicants.

If any of you are eligible for a (Vers) award please do let me know so that we can add you to the Honours list. In order to achieve a (Vers) award you need to have three Honours at the same level and if they are in the same medium then they have to be in different categories. Proof sheets of all three panels have to be sent to me.
