CategoriesThis year, only the Public Choice and New Talent categories are fixed: all other categories are open for proposal! No matter if you code on 30 year-old machines, do music on the newest of the new, or carve demogroup-logos into potatoes: there can be a category for you, if you propose it! |
Call for jurorsThe winner of each category will be determined by three judges. That’s a lot of judges you say? Well, you’re right and you should consider applying. |
Recommend a productionThe jurors are in session and starting to make sense of the huge amount of things that have been released in 2016. They are working hard not to overlook worthy entries, but we want to make extra sure that everything gets considered. |
