In comparison to other complementary awards ceremonies, the AMASA Awards celebrate 'all-rounder' media campaigns which are based on sound insights, underpinned by great ideas, followed through with perfectly executed strategy to achieve outstanding and measurable results - all the while celebrating INNOVATION!

The AMASA Awards entries are now open as the association calls to all media practitioners countrywide to share their best work implemented between 1 July 2015 - 30 June 2016, in order to inspire the industry as a whole and give their media ideas and campaigns a longer shelf life.

This year the categories see a new comer to the list, with the addition of the Best Trade Marketing Campaign. “Primarily for media owners the ‘Best Trade Marketing Campaign’ seeks to celebrate the exceptionally creative trade campaigns typically targeting media agencies and clients direct,” explains Wayne Bishop, head of the AMASA Awards portfolio. “We hope teams make use of the new category as well as the various others to help share and celebrate great, innovative work done over the past 12 months.”

The overall best campaign will remain the renowned title winner of The Roger Garlick Grand Prix who will have their work submitted into the international Festival of Media Awards sponsored by AMASA. The Ignition Award introduced in 2013 is aimed at students' work also remains as the association encourages young, budding marketers to share their fresh conceptual campaigns.
