Projected juries are typically juries where artwork images are displayed on a large wall or projection screens. When using the projected scorecard, jurors may see thumbnails of all the images or just one, depending on the administrator’s settings.
The other type of jury used on ZAPP, the monitor jury, is most often characterized by jurors who are scoring applicants remotely, from their own computers.
The projected scorecard will look like the image below, though you may only see one thumbnail on your scorecard. You’ll know you’re on the scorecard if you have a place to enter a score and comment.
Note: If your scorecard does not look like the image below, the event administrator may have set up the jury to use the monitor jury scorecard. To view information about monitor juries, see our Scoring Submissions in a Monitor Jury page.
The ZAPP team recommends reviewing images before scoring to ensure you have a chance to acclimate to the platform and view all submissions. While there is no specific review function on the juror side of ZAPP for projected juries, administrators will often include a preliminary review round during the jury. This review round simply consists of jurors viewing the applicants’ work on a wall or screen without scoring for a few moments before progressing to the next applicant. Once the review process is complete, the jury administrator will move the jury into the first round of scoring.
Click “Save Score” to save your score and proceed to the next applicant.Once you have clicked “Save This Score” on any applicant’s scorecard, that score is automatically saved in ZAPP and accessible to the event administrator. Though scores are immediately available, most jurors will still want to review their scores and comments before letting administrators know they are done scoring.
You can use the sort and filter tools on the landing page to view submitted scores from highest to lowest, sort scores by medium category, and review your comments. You can also show artist thumbnails on the landing page to aid in your review.
You can update your scores and comments at any time while the jury is in process by clicking the “Review” link under the action column. You can also download your scores into a spreadsheet and review them in that format or just to use as a reference in case the administrator has any questions about a submitted score or comment.
