AIR to Spotlight Emerging Talent at Spot in a Pocket! Finalist Showcase
The Alliance of Independent Representatives (AIR) will host a special showcase event spotlighting the finalists and winner of Spot in a Pocket! on Tuesday, October 14 at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Entries were evaluated based on storytelling, art direction, and production value by a panel of industry leaders, including:
- Molly Mitchell, executive producer, IDENTITY
