The AICP Next Awards debuted tonight at The Tishman Auditorium At The New School. The AICP Next Awards is one of the tent pole events of AICP Week - which also includes the premiere of the AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the American Commercial, and the AICP Week Base Camp, which features educational seminars and panels. Jeff Kling, Chief Creative Officer of Fallon Worldwide, served as this year's AICP Next Awards Judging Chair, as well as the Master of Ceremonies at the Next Awards.
This year's winners - along with all AICP Next Awards winners - are available for viewing at www.aicpawards.com. Each year, the honored work from the AICP Next Awards and AICP Show becomes a part of the archives of the Department of Film at The Museum of Modern Art.
The AICP Next Awards recognizes work in 11 categories: Integrated Campaign, Experiential, Experiential Architecture, Social, Branded Content, Website, Mobile, Viral/Web Film, Virtual Reality, Innovation and Cause Marketing. The Next Awards Judging Chair and the Jury Presidents from each category select The Most Next Award (Best in Show) from among the winners. This year's Most Next honor went to The New York Times virtual reality piece The Displaced. The experience gives users a birds-eye view of what is like to be a refugee of a war-torn country. It was directed by Imraan Ismail and Ben C. Solomon, and produced by VRSE.works for The New York Times. The winner of the Most Next honor directs a $5,000 grant from the AICP Foundation to an educational institution of their choosing.
