*There’s a brand new award that we’ve added to the IDY Awards Celebration. As the voting at times is so close that our Grand Jury has trouble making absolute decisions on the winner and runners up. We are introducing the Vanguard Awards for Cinematic Achievement. These awards will be given to outstanding films and projects which, though they may not garner the highest voting numbers overall in any one category, but they display exceptional production and storytelling value and are therefore worthy of recognition.
