meet to discuss your video contest

contest is in the idea phase. We’ll

Interruption Advertising
is Dead
We skip commercials. We block ads.
If a production company makes content and nobody sees
it, does it make a sound? The Audience Awards solves this
problem in an innovative way.

4. The New Way
Today’s consumers deserve better. Our video contests consist of real
filmmakers telling authentic stories. Stories resonate. Stories connect.
And as users make purchasing decisions, stories matter.

company to make a video or two. But why not engage a
whole community of filmmakers to create your content and
enjoy the benefits of extraordinary social media exposure?

engagement recods. Because what we do is innovative and
