BIMA Awards - Special Awards Finalists Revealed

Following on from the announcement of the Sector and Discipline category finalists last month, BIMA have now revealed the shortlist for the Special Awards. The Special Awards recognise excellence in interactive crafts, with the shortlist made up from all the entries received across all the main categories, so competition is fierce.

A statement from BIMA HQ said "With the incredibly high standards this year it has been difficult to reach a decision, but after much deliberation we have arrived at our finalists for Accessibility & Usability, Copywriting, Effectiveness, Innovation, Motion Graphics, Originality, Sound, Strategy, Technical Achievement and Visual Design."
