The idea of having all craft disciplines in one room ensures that the best work becomes a part of the year's installment of the AICP Show, to be archived by the Department of Film at The Museum of Modern Art.
Under the direction of Shenfield 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. To reflect the evolving nature of advertising and marketing communications particularly with regards to the importance of digital production and effects updates were made to the definitions for the Visual Effects, Design and Animation categories. These definitions will better assist entrants in clarifying the language used to describe the type of work that should be entered in each category. To view the updated definitions, click here. The Curatorial Committee is the final arbiter in the disposition of the Show, confirming eligibility and appropriateness to category.
