THE 12th ANNUAL GOLDEN TRAILER AWARDS

Visit the official site at 500MillionFriends.com

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 03, 2011

Nominations for the 12th ANNUAL GOLDEN TRAILER AWARDS ® were released this morning. Highlights include the Summer 2011 Blockbuster category dominated by trailers for three Stephen Spielberg productions—“Cowboys and Aliens,” “Super 8” and “Transformers:Dark of the Moon”—up against “Pirates of the Caribbean 4”; the reels for the hits “Black Swan” vying for Best Thriller, “Hangover Part II” and “Bad Teacher” for Best Comedy, or “The Tillman Story” for Best Documentary trailer. Announced by event co-founders and producers Evelyn Brady-Watters and Monica Brady, the awards will be presented at a gala show on Wednesday June 29th at the Music Box Theatre in Los Angeles.

According to Brady-Watters, this year’s crop of movie trailers is notable for its exceptional quality: “There’s such intense competition for box-office dollars that everyone’s game has been elevated. More than ever, we’re seeing originality in technique, incredible audio work, and a mastery of craft, whether it’s from the big studios or the smallest of indies.” The dozen-year mark also brought a record number of entries, now topping 1,050, which includes a doubling of videogame trailers, and an ever-broader range of international competitors.

Created in 1999 to reward achievement in the art of movie promotion, The Golden Trailer Awards are internationally recognized as the top honor in the field. But the awards night also celebrates the sheer fun of trailers—now one of the most popular forms of video streamed online, with billions of views each year. Sixteen of the 62 categories of Golden Trailer Awards® will be distributed at the live show in a night of comedy and entertainment (host and presenters to be announced). The event is open to the public, with tickets available for purchase on http://www.goldentraileraward.com.

The full list of nominations can be found on the website, as well as below. As in 2010, Lionsgate dominates the field with 37 nominations. Warner Bros. comes in second with an impressive 28 nominations across its divisions. The Golden Trailer Awards cover trailers, posters and TV spots, in categories that range from the expected—Best Action, Best Romance, Best Horror, etc.—to the irreverent, including The Golden Fleece trophy applauding the best reel for a bad movie, and Trashiest Trailer. Additionally, there is a category for Best Videogame Trailer.

Winners are selected by a prestigious jury of entertainment pros, which in past years has included such names as Quentin Tarantino, David Geffen, Joss Whedon, Pedro Almodovar and Ben Stiller. This year’s panel will be announced shortly.
