Ali Brown of PRETTYBIRD Announced as 2020 AICP Show Chair New York, N.Y. December 9, 2019 Matt Miller, President and CEO, announced that Ali Brown, Partner/Executive Producer at PRETTYBIRD, will serve as the Chairperson of the 2020 AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the Commercial. Miller additionally announced that the AICP Show will now accept entries from agencies, marketers, production companies and post production companies globally in all categories. The AICP Show is the most prestigious, largest and longest running craft-based awards competition in the world. This expansion allows it to become a truly global competition for excellence in brand communication for the moving image.
It is such an honor to chair this year's AICP Show and having recently served as president of juries around the world from Thailand to Brazil, I'm particularly looking forward to the inclu-sion of international entries. As this industry becomes truly global in its makeup and its reach, it is only fitting that the Show expands to recognize the best work around the world and I'm excited to work with the very best creators in our business to select those to be honored.
Ali brings so much insight and experience to the Show, noted Miller. Her enthusiasm, knowledge and global stature will ensure that the judges and curators of the 2020 AICP Show will again assemble an unequalled compendium of work for this seminal year.
Beginning in 2009 - just after its doors opened - Brown was instrumental in building the PRETTYBIRD roster and reputation to be best in class. With a prior background in feature film development, Brown expanded the company's reach in commercials and music videos while simultaneously spearheading the company's expansion into other genres such as brand-ed content, shorts, feature films, and series. With offices in both London and L. A., PRETTYBIRD has remained one of the most award-winning production companies in the world, known for its development of young talent, world-class production craft, cultivation of diverse voices, and fearlessness when it comes to taking on untraditional projects.
International Entries
Originally known as the AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the American Television Commercial, the competition is the association's original awards program which recognizes outstanding achievement in a wide range of crafts from concept to execution. In 2006 the show dropped the word Television from its title and eligibility requirements to reflect the diversifi-cation of marketing platforms.
From its first year, this show has continually refined its categories and qualifications to allow the showcase to reflect what is most important in the industry and the culture, says Miller. The creation of content is increasingly global with work being produced collaboratively around the world for media markets that have no boundaries. Accepting entries from beyond the US was a natural progression for the AICP Show, now known as The Art and Technique of the Commercial.
As the cornerstone of the three awards shows that make up the suite of AICP Awards, the AICP Show now has limitless reach in seeking to honor, archive and study the best of the best, glob-ally. Flanking The AICP Show are The AICP Next Awards which recognizes work in emerging media platforms and the AICP Post Awards, which honors excellence in specifc crafts in the post production arts. (The latter competition came to AICP after the 2018 merger with AICE).
Beginning in 2020, all three shows will have the same eligibility requirements, and entrants will easily be able to enter all at the same time. New this year is a partnership with the Source One-Click entry system, which will allow members of Source to quickly and easily upload work, and credits, that already exist on the Source platform to the AICP entry portal powered by Awardcore. The official Call for Entries kicks off December 9th and the site can be accessed here.
The AICP Show is one of the industry's leading creative and executional benchmarks and serves as more than a mere awards show. Each year, The AICP Show and The AICP Next Awards are preserved in The Museum of Modern Art's Department of Film's state of the art archives for future generations to study and are available for use or exhibition by the museum's curators. All individual works and each year's shows in their entirety can be viewed ex-clusively at www.aicpawards.com, the AICP Awards Archive website. The AICP Post Awards (and previous winners of the AICE Awards) can viewed at www.aicppostawards.com.
The winning work at both the AICP Show and the AICP Next Awards will be presented at gala celebrations scheduled for AICP Week in New York in June of 2020, while the winners of the AICP Post Awards will be presented in May of 2020, also in New York.
