The AICP has chosen its category judges for the AICP Awards, which consists of three award shows – AICP Next Awards, AICP Post Awards, and AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the Commercial. The annual Next Awards applauds work that defies convention, and effectively uses new technologies, as well as storytelling. The AICP Post Awards covers editorial, audio mixing, sound design, colour grading, graphic design, visual effects and finishing.
All awarded AICP work is preserved in The Museum of Modern Art’s Department of Film’s state of the art archives for future generations to study.
The entry deadline for all three shows is March 6. Find entry and award details here.
