The inaugural edition of the Concept Art Awards will be presented on Sept. 7 in Pasadena by the Concept Art Association and LightBox Expo. The newest industry award will recognize the often unsung achievements of concept artists and highlight the value of their work in this contemporary CG era in film and television and the on-going growth of the video game marketplace.
During the event, winners and nominees will be honored in categories that include: live action work for film/broadcast, animation work for film/broadcast, gaming work (mobile/ PC/console), original concepts/independent work, student work, and fan work. Special presentations will also be made for lifetime achievement and the LightBox Community Icon Award.
The spotlight is long overdue for the concept art sector, whose luminaries have included the likes of Ralph McQuarrie (Star Wars), H. R. Giger (Alien), Mary Blair (Alice in Wonderland), and Eyvind Earle (Sleeping Beauty).
