With the cream of creative advertising work being entered by agencies, production companies, VFX and editing houses from across Europe, the pre-judging of the inaugural shots Awards Europe has been a Herculean effort.

The task of paring down this year's good to the very good (and the very good to the excellent) has been a tough one, but we've risen to the challenge and the shortlists for the 2019 Awards are now complete. 

From here, it's over to our international judging panel who will be making the final, crucial decisions to ascertain the winning work, but you can see who and what is in the running with all of the category shortlists featured below.

You can find out which entries are garnered with shiny shots Awards by attending this year's event, held on November 14 at 8 Northumberland London
