About us
The Shorty Awards (also known as “The Shortys”) honor the most innovative work in digital and social media, by organizations in all sectors and sizes, as well as individual creatives and creators from around the world. Founded in 2008, the Shortys’ mission is to celebrate, inspire and push the boundaries of excellence in digital storytelling. Entries are judged on the merits of creativity, strategy, and engagement by the Real Time Academy, a body of hand-selected industry experts and leaders. The public can also weigh in and select their favorite Shorty Awards contenders during Audience Honor Voting. Notable previous winners include brands, agencies, nonprofits, media, and production companies such as Airbnb, Marvel Studios, HBO, HRC, UNICEF, Nestle, BMW, Paramount+, Digitas, Wieden + Kennedy, 72andSunny etc, as well as influential artists, scientists, authors, and activists such as Greta Thunberg, Bill Nye, Michelle Obama, Trevor Noah, Lizzo, Malala Yousafzai, Conan O’Brien, Lady Gaga and more. Currently, the Shortys have two annual competitions, the flagship Shorty Awards and Shorty Impact Awards dedicated to honoring the best work with a positive social impact.

Shorty Awards reposted this
Bilingual TEDx Speaker • Pantone Spotlight Artist 2024 • Creator of Twitter Whale 🐳 art & 🥟🧋🥡🥠🥢🦚 Emoji Designs • San Francisco Arts Commissioner
🩵🐳🩵 Thankful to present at the 16th Shorty Awards on 5/22 as the inaugural #design winner. I shared my recent New York Subway survival story to raise Mental Health awareness. Together, we turn challenges into triumphs. Here is the story I shared: 16 years ago, my drawing of a white whale lifted by birds became the "Twitter Fail Whale." This artwork turned a tech error into a symbol of creativity, inspiring countless creations, including sculptures, posters, cakes, fine art, fashion, beer labels, and tattoos. WIRED Magazine named it an icon of Web 2.0. In 2009, I was honored as the first-ever Shorty Awards Winner in Design. That trip to New York City was my first time in the US, leading to lifelong friendships and connections. In 2015, I moved to San Francisco to bridge the gap between art and technology. I was the creative director at 500 Global, and then I started my innovation studio with clients like The Walt Disney Company, Ogilvy, Apple and fellow Shorty Awards winner Conan O'Brien. I also serve as a San Francisco arts commissioner, helping artists thrive. This year, I am honored to be a Pantone Spotlight artist and created the artwork for this event (Thank you, Elley and Team Pantone!) The Shorty Awards have catalyzed my career, and I am grateful to celebrate the event. Just days before, on May 18th, I was attacked in the subway by someone who was mentally ill, and I almost got pushed onto the subway tracks. It's a miracle that I could be at the award ceremony to present in person three days later. This experience made me appreciate our togetherness even more. We’ve endured a pandemic and are now here in Tribeca, celebrating creativity and each other. In honor of AAPI Heritage Month and Mental Health Month, I thank you all for allowing me to share my recent experience to bring awareness to social issues. As creatives, we have the capacity to turn challenges into opportunities and make positive waves. As Yoko Ono said, “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.” I also want to share the original name of my whale art: "Lifting a Dreamer." Thank you, Tania Rahman, for your lovely introduction, and thank you, Junmian Sun, for giving me this opportunity to share my experience with everyone. Thank you, my wonderful fellow Shorty presenters and Table 1 companions: Scott, Jeff, Tania, Ziad, Abby, Kerry, Amber, Jennifer, Rick, Stephanie, R.John, Tannese, Tiffany. Team Shorty Awards: Vanshika, Chelsea, Wendong and, of course, Gregory and Lee, who started this whole thing 16 years ago! Congratulations to all our winners and honorees, and a huge thank you to all presenters, performers, and partners! #Creativity #community #shortyawards #NYC #NewYork #Design #designer #AAPI #MentalHealth #Subway #Resilience
