Call for Entries ~ Accolade Named Among Top 25 Festivals
July 24th, 2008Opportunity
Now in its sixth year, top-tier, international awards competition, The
Accolade, announces its Call for Entries for filmmakers, television
producers and videographers.
Information
The Accolade is a non-traditional, virtual venue. Awards go to those
filmmakers, television producers and videographers who produce fresh,
standout entertainment, animation and compelling documentaries. It is
a showcase for cinematic gems and unique voices.
Most importantly, The Accolade team works passionately to help worthy
productions gain the publicity and distribution they deserve. That is
what The Accolade is all about: helping winners of this coveted award
achieve recognition and distribution opportunities.
Every filmmaker, television producer and videographer wants
credibility associated with their work and buzz about their
productions. In addition to target press releases, clips of the Best
of Show productions are streamed on The Accolade Web site, reaching
thousands of industry professionals. The Accolade is an award
recognized for its rigorous evaluation process by buyers and
distributors, inspiring confidence that winning productions are of
high quality.
Quality and creativity are celebrated in three levels of awards: Best
of Show, Award of Excellence and Honorable Mention. Best of Show
honors are granted only if worthy productions are discovered.
Likewise, no more than 15% of entries are granted Awards of
Excellence. Notable artistic and technical productions are recognized
at the Honorable Mention award level. Annually, a special award is
given to a production that makes a significant contribution to social
change or a humanitarian effort.
The Accolade receives entries from all over the world: Australia,
Brazil, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Columbia, Czech Republic, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Israel,
Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines,
Puerto Rico, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, United Kingdom and the
United States.
MovieMaker Magazine recently included The Accolade among the Top 25
Festivals “Worth The Entry Fee.” The article said, “Past participants
can’t stop raving about the professional opportunities participation
in this event has generated for their work.”
