SYDNEY: Kodak and AWARD have launched an award to honour new commercial directors in Asia Pacific.
The Kodak AWARD New Director of the Year gong offers new directors the opportunity to showcase their talent at two awards evenings in Sydney this year.
Ingrid Goodyear, marketing & operations director at Kodak Entertainment Imaging, Greater Asia & Japan Regions, said the initiative is an ideal vehicle for the industry to “discover new talent whilst promoting a new generation of creativity”.
"Kodak continues to look for ways to foster creativity and recognise excellence,” she said in a statement.
“With one third of the world’s advertising emanating from the Asia Pacific region, we are very fortunate to be able to embrace a genuine variety of ideas that stem from the cultural diversity within the region.”
A panel of international directors and CDs will judges the entries with the finalists showcased at a special New Directors event.
The winner will receive $4,000 worth of 35mm Kodak motion picture film, and be recognised at the AWARD presentation evening on 30 November.
