Launched in 2006, the HPA Awards were created to cultivate awareness of post production, promote creative and technical excellence, recognize the achievements of post production talent and build involvement in the Hollywood Post Alliance. The Engineering Excellence Award is a coveted honor that spotlights the companies and individuals who draw upon technical and creative ingenuity and apply it to real world post production demands. The Award is recognized by the technical and post production community as a gold standard of accomplishment.
Chris Brown, Executive Vice President, Conventions & Business Operations of NAB stated, “We are pleased to announce our continuing sponsorship of the HPA Engineering Excellence Award. We consider this Award to be the most esteemed in the post industry and believe it will continue to point the direction to the most innovative and best technology the industry has to offer.
Leon Silverman, President of the HPA, noted, “We are honored and pleased that NAB Show has again lent their support and prestigious name in honoring the technology and innovation that is recognized in the HPA Engineering Excellence Award. This award is another way in which we honor the role that tools and the creative use of technology plays in helping to fuel and enable our creative industry and artists.”
The winners of the Engineering Excellence Award will be announced in September and the honorees will be awarded at the Seventh Annual HPA Awards Show, a gala event set for November 1 at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles, CA. The 2011 winners included Sony for the OLED Monitor, Lightcraft for Previzion, Dolby for the Professional Reference Monitor and IBM for Linear Tape File System.
