AWARDS FOR MERIT IN AUDIO VISUAL PRODUCTION

Of interest to anyone producing AV’s, the following is an extract from Rod Wheelans’ email re enews of the PAGB Issue 67:

“The PAGB recently agreed the following definition which has received wide support:

"An AV Production submitted for a PAGB Award for Photographic Merit should predominantly consist of a sequence of still photographic images, the majority of such images being the original work of the entrant, together with a synchronised sound track.

The use of third party images, animated graphics, video clips or other visual material, whilst not excluded, should be limited and appropriate to the production.

Entrants must confirm that they have obtained legal consent for the use of any visual or audio material used in the production other than their own original content."

The AV Adjudication, scheduled for 20 October 2012, has adopted this definition and will be conducted in accordance with previous custom and practice. Now that this definition has been agreed the PAGB Executive has asked the APM Sub Committee to review all the procedures and practices for running Adjudications from 2013. They intend to conduct a further wide ranging consultation leading, hopefully, to specific proposals early in 2013.

If you are involved in Audio Visual as a current or potential producer of AV, as a past or present judge or if you just have an interest in how it may develop in the future and you would like to be involved in this consultation please register an interest with rod@creative-camera.co.uk . All input is welcome although we cannot promise individual responses.”
