PAGB Awards For Merit In Audio Visual Production
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 SubCommittee to review all the procedures
and practices for running Adjudications
from 2013.
They intend to conduct a further wide ranging conversation 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 conversation please
