Robin Shenfield Of The Mill To Chair The 2018 AICP Show (Call For Entries Now Open)

NEW YORK, January 4, 2018 – Matt Miller, President and CEO of AICP announced today that Robin Shenfield, Co-Founder and CEO of The Mill, will serve as Chairperson of the 2018 AICP Show: The Art & Technique of the American Commercial. The AICP Show is one of the tent-pole events of AICP Week, which also includes the debut of the AICP Next Awards, as well as various creative and educational sessions at the AICP Week Base Camp. AICP Week will take place in New York this June. Entries are now being accepted at: http://www.awardcore.com/aicp/login.php.

“Having participated in the AICP Show Curatorial Committee several times, I can attest to the AICP Show being the industry standard for honoring the craft as well as the creativity of marketing communications,” noted Shenfield. “The rigorous process to become a Show honoree reflects its high standards.” Each year’s AICP Show is made a part of the permanent archive of the Department of Film at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.

“Robin personifies the evolution of production,” said Miller. “Having built one of the great global digital production companies over the past three decades he has a unique position and perspective in the industry. The Mill has been at the forefront of nearly every creative milestone, and partnered with myriad creative entities to achieve consistent ground-breaking work. His vision has garnered nearly 40 winning pieces in AICP Shows, and earned him unsurpassed respect from his peers.”

Shenfield started The Mill in the U.K. in 1990 with 30 employees; today it has over 1,000 in offices in London, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. The company has created award-winning work for the likes of Audi, Verizon, adidas, Volkswagen, John Lewis, BMW, Nike and numerous others. The Mill is also a technological innovator, having developed Blackbird, a toolkit for automotive ad production, as well as Cyclops, a proprietary AR tool. The company won an Academy Awards for the visual effects on “Gladiator.”

Call for Entries & 2018 AICP Show Committee

The Call for Entries to the AICP Show is now open at http://www.awardcore.com/aicp/login.php. The deadline to enter work is March 9, 2018; eligibility dates are: February 27, 2017 – March 4, 2018. This year, there is a new pricing structure for entries: while a single submission will be $295; a single piece entered in three categories will be $750 ($250 per category); a single spot submitted in five categories will be $1,175 ($235 per category); and a campaign submission is $550. “We have noticed that many entrants submit work for consideration in multiple categories,” explained Miller, “so the option to pay a flat fee for multiple categories for the same piece of work streamlines the uploading process for entrants, and will allow them to realize cost savings.” Work for the AICP Show may appear on any screen, and there is no limit to running time.

To reflect the evolving nature of advertising and marketing communications – particularly with regards to the importance of digital production and effects – updates were made to the definitions for the Visual Effects, Design and Animation categories.
