The Immortal Awards 2024: Entry Webinar and Q&A Session Now Available for Playback
FAQs
What are the eligibility dates for this year’s competition?
Work that has first launched, aired or been published from 1st September 2023 up until 31st August 2024 is eligible for this year’s competition.
Am I able to submit director's cuts or do all submissions have to be the client version?
The work that we are judging is the work that has been approved and aired by the client (so that quite often is not the director’s cut). If, for whatever reasons, the director’s cut did get publicly launched and approved by the client then it would be eligible. Ultimately, entries must be client approved versions that officially aired.
If someone has two roles or job titles (for example founder and creative director), do we select one of the two roles for the credits or can we credit with both?
At the moment you can’t tag two job titles to one person but you can add that person twice tagged to two job titles.
Do you have any tips on how to stand out when submitting details under the supporting materials page?
Supporting materials aren’t compulsory and we know a lot of our entrants don’t have access to resources such as case films, boards or results. Not supplying supporting materials doesn’t harm your submissions, however if you do have any written information or files to support your entries then feel free to upload them onto the submission form. We always suggest uploading as much as you have that you believe will support your entry during the judging process.
Does the supporting materials or answer to the ‘What Makes This Project Immortal?’ question get published publicly?
Both supporting materials and the answer to the question are for jurors’ eyes only. We appreciate that there is quite often sensitive information in the supporting material with regards to business problems and results that we do not make publicly available.
How many entries win globally and do you have Gold, Silver and Bronze rankings?
As many or as few projects can win at The Immortal Awards, with no quotas or direction given to our jurors. The prize structure differs to most shows, with the biggest global prize being Immortal winners, followed by Commendations which are given to incredible projects that don’t quite hit Immortal standards. Along the way, each of our country and region based juries select Finalists that both best represent their respective market and qualify for the next round of judging. For example, US Finalists will compete in the North American round of judging, whilst North American Finalists will compete at the global round of judging.
The Immortal Awards entry system is now open and entries into competition will be accepted until September 5th 2024. All entries must be made for a commissioning client, and must have first aired, broadcast, displayed, launched or published between September 1st 2023 and August 31st 2024.
