Iron Man 3 and The Avengers also big winners at the annual Hollywood awards show.
Evelyn Brady-Watters reflected, “It’s great when trailers for small dramas or docs win BEST IN SHOW, but this year, the blockbusters really show off the economic power of a great, creative trailer. The ‘Iron Man 3’ preview is a world-wide phenomenon, and last year’s two-time nominee for “Marvel’s The Avengers” anchored a campaign that earned $1.5 billion and our new TOP OF THE BOX OFFICE award.”
Monica Brady, Executive Producer of the GTA, added “This year we’re seeing such well crafted material, with great sound design. At the theater the other night, the audience was actually clapping for the trailers – they’re really gearing people up for this summer season.”
The jury for the 14th Annual Golden Trailer Awards comprised: Bill Block, Producer and CEO of QED International (District 9); Brian Cavanaugh-Jones, Producer/President, Automatik Entertainment (Safe); Daniel Diamond, President of QED International (You Got Served); Andrew Dunn, Cinematographer (The Perks of Being a Wallflower); Drew Goddard, Writer/Director (Cabin in the Woods); Angelique Higgins, Producer and Partner in Launchpad Productions; Andrew Panay, Producer and CEO of Panay Films (Hit and Run); David Paterson, Producer (Bridge to Terabithia); Nicholas Stoller, Writer/Director (5 Year Engagement); and Lee David Zlotoff, Writer/Producer (MacGyver).
