HPA AWARDS SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER 1ST

LOS ANGELES - The Second Annual HPA Awards will take place on November 1st, honoring creative and technical excellence in the art, science and craft of post production. Tickets are now available (www.hpaawards.net) for the gala event, which will be held at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles.

The HPA Awards were designed to highlight and raise awareness of the significant role post production plays in the creative process. Creative awards are presented for editing, color grading, compositing and post audio in features, television and commercials. Integral to the post process are the engineers and technology experts who help to shape post production and provide the tools that help create much of Hollywood’s magic. The Engineering Excellence Award focuses on these contributions.

Two special awards will also be presented - one honoring a lifetime of commitment and dedication to the industry, and the other for making a significant impact on the industry.
