AWARDS 2019


In order to insure that each submission is studied and rated on an individual basis,
SYTYCA has instituted a system to insure that entries do not compete against each other,
but instead are recognized for their own individual merits.
For all intents and purposes, they compete against themselves: each entry is judged on
individual merits and scored on an inherent value system.
We want to insure that the judges focus is on you when it is your turn to be evaluated,
 not on all the other actors that are in cue: this insures that they will not have comparisons
going on in their minds when they should be focusing entirely on YOU.
