The Lovie Awards Competition is open to all organisations and individuals involved in designing, building, managing, maintaining, marketing, or promoting Websites, Online Advertising, Internet Video, Mobile Sites, Apps & Podcasts, and Social content for European business, consumer, or general audiences. Here are some helpful guidelines for making sure the entry process goes off without a hitch.
Entry
All work entered into The Lovie Awards must be created by a company or individual on behalf of a European-based client or individual, for use by European web audiences. Entries must have been in general use for at least part of the current calendar year. Entries do not, however, need to have been created this year. There is no limit to the number of entries that may be submitted by any entrant, nor is there a limit to the number of categories you may enter. A completed online entry form and fee must accompany each entry.
How work is judged
From the thousands of entries submitted during the call for entries, members of the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences independently inspect each entry and rate them based on their respective judging criteria. Each entry is evaluated by multiple academy members.
Judging foreign language entries
The Lovie Awards accepts entries in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Swedish. The Academy is made up of bi-lingual judges who are assigned entries in specific languages to judge. All judges, regardless of assigned language group, are granted access to judge English language work. A proprietary algorithm normalises all entries in foreign languages in accordance with the judging patterns in the English language entries, creating a level playing field across all seven language types.
