The AICP Community Award is an unfiltered way to give the entire industry the ability to voice its opinion on the favorite spot of the year.

The voting is open now via the Curator Bot, which lives on Facebook messenger and can be accessed here. The results will be announced during AICP Week (June 4th-June 6th).
We are incredibly excited to find out what others think should be singled out as the best ad of the year, and hope all will join in and let us know their favorites. Using a bot which is
becoming an increasingly popular tool for marketers is a fun and engaging way to encourage voting. noted Miller. Each year's shortlists come int0 being because of the hard work of the 400-plus judges around the world who lend their professional and artistic voices to the AICP Awards; in turn the shortlists are reviewed by blue ribbon curatorial committees. It will be
interesting to see how the public selection matches up with that of our judges and curators.
The addition of the AICP Community Award means the viewing audience has a chance to weigh in on a favorite ad. The Bot Platform, which developed the chat bot on
Facebook's messenger platform, works with clients including CBS Showtime, Dyson, Viacom, Sony Playstation and Facebook. Also unveiled today are the shortlists for the AICP Next Awards and AICP Show. The winners of the AICP Next Awards will be revealed on June 4th, while the AICP Show honoress will be unveiled at The Musuem of Modern Art (MoMA) on June 6th.
