The 23rd TIVA Peer Awards
Stay Tuned for Details
Submissions opening soon!
This year, we have some exciting changes in store. One, TIVA will be accepting entries exclusively via the FilmFreeway platform. This system should be familiar to many of you in the independent film community, but for those of you who haven't used it before, you should be able to pick up on it fairly quickly (and we're always here to help).
And two, we have gotten consistent feedback that the awards ceremony itself doesn't allow for enough time to showcase our Gold Award winners. So this time, instead of just hosting an evening dinner and awards ceremony, we will be adding a live screening to the weekend's festivities — an opportunity not only to celebrate excellence, but to actually see the DMV's top productions in their entirety, at a dedicated event!
Stay tuned for details — this is going to be a weekend to remember!
TIVA congratulates all of the awardees at the 2018 TIVA Peer Awards
See the full list of awards and recipients here.
| The Peer Awards began in 1997 as part of the former Washington Film and Video Council (WFVC) and later merged with the existing, popular “ITVA-DC Video Festival.” Today, the TIVA-DC Peer Awards continues to celebrate local excellence in media and offer one of the most sought-after awards in our community. The 2018 Peer Awards Ceremony was held at the NATIONAL PRESS CLUB on Saturday, November 17, 2018, with an extended reception/networking hour, starting at 6:30 pm. The TIVA-DC Peer Awards is a merit-based award judged solely on the individual merits of the entry. This is not a competition, rather an acknowledgment and celebration of exceptional quality work created by professionals and non-professionals in the Washington, DC, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania or Delaware region. This may result in categories receiving multiple awards of the same level as well as some categories without awards. |
Awards
All Gold Award recipients receive a TIVA-DC Peer Award trophy the night of the ceremony. And — new this year — we will be hosting a LIVE SCREENING EVENT of select Gold Award winners the day following the awards ceremony! Silver and Bronze recipients receive an embossed certificate suitable for framing. Additional Gold trophies as well as Silver and Bronze trophies and/or certificates may be ordered for a nominal fee after the ceremony. A special discount period will be offered for trophy/certificate orders immediately following the ceremony. All award recipients will be honored at the Peer Awards Ceremony and listed on the Peer Awards website along with clips of their entries where permitted.
Judging
A panel of distinguished judges are selected on a volunteer basis based on stringent standards that include relevant background, demonstrated expertise and established standing in a category field for which an industry expert is judging. Judges are drawn from industry professionals in the Washington, DC, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Delaware region.
Entries are carefully judged on rigorous and category-specific criteria and are handled through a carefully guided process in order to ensure consistency, critical thinking and informed peer review, which results in a well-earned award of merit and excellence in achievement.
