The closing date for submissions is 30 September, 2013. Presentations will then take place 20 November, 2013.

A winner will be selected from each category, all of which will then be considered for the title of Winner, BIPP Open 2013. This is an entirely separate and stand-alone competition from the rest of the BIPP Awards.

The BIPP Awards are amongst the most highly regarded in the industry, and success in these awards shows an incredibly high standard of work. Not only are the judges looking for composition and technical ability, but also creativity, interpretation and that ‘wow factor’.
