05 AICP Show Curatorial Committee Announced

2015 AICP Show Curatorial Committee Announced Matt Miller, President and CEO of the Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP), and Kerstin Emhoff, Co-Founder/Executive Producer and the 2015 Chairperson of the AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the American Commercial, today announced the composition of the Show's Curatorial Committee. Emhoff will preside over The AICP Show and various elements of AICP Week, which includes its other tent pole event, the AICP Next Awards.

Having a system of over four hundred specialized crafts people judge the work, and then the amazing assembly of people curating the AICP Show sets the importance of this showcase apart from the pack, said Miller. Their perspective and expertise helps us to create a showcase worthy of inclusion in the film archives of The Museum of Modern Art.

It's a great honor to assemble such a distinguished group of talented people, said Emhoff. I'm looking forward to reviewing the hard work the judges have done, and seeing what rises to the top this year.

Under the direction of Emhoff and Miller, the Curatorial Committee is comprised of a diverse array of industry leaders, working in all disciplines that contribute to creating marketing in the motion image. The Curatorial Committee is part of a bifurcated judging system, which begins with a series of judging panels from across the country, with experts in various fields judging work across the 22 categories in the Show. The Curatorial Committee is the final arbiter in the disposition of the Show, confirming eligibility and appropriateness to category.
