The Golden Trailer Awards, the most anticipated, fun and prestigious event honoring marketing executives and companies that create movie trailers, commercials and posters worldwide, today announced nominees in the 20th annual competition. Evelyn Watters, Golden Trailer Awards Executive Director, proudly announced the 2019 nominees along with the show's executive producer Monica Brady. #GTA20, will take place on Wednesday, May 29th at the The Theatre at the Ace Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles.
Netflix led this year's tally by studio with 66 nominations on films and series including Roma, “Stranger Things: Season 3” and Bird Box, among others. Warner Bros (with subsidiaries including HBO and New Line) has 59 GTA nominations for acclaimed work on A Star is Born, “Game of Thrones, Season 8,” and Aquaman, among others. Universal (including Focus and Dreamworks Animation, among others) came in third with 45 GTA nominations on films and series including Green Book, Us, and Hobbs & Shaw.
A Star Is Born earned the most nominations of any film by title with 12 followed by Roma, which earned 11 nominations and Us, which earned 10 GTA noms.
Top trailer houses in this year’s competition included Trailer Park with 32 nominations, Buddha Jones with 27, and AV Squad with a total of 26.
The Golden Trailer Awards is an unconventional ceremony that honors excellence in feature film trailers and movie marketing. The GTAs recognize the trailers, posters and innovative, new experiential concepts as well as the ideas which drive the movie industry. Presented live on stage categories recognize the serious and the lighthearted, including Best Summer Blockbuster Trailer, and Best of Show, among others.
Said Watters, “The very first Golden Trailer Awards show was held 20 years ago on September 21, 1999 in New York. Over the years we have had some wonderful hosts, some very special judges, and have been able to honor many great artists who work tirelessly behind the scenes to create the trailers that drive audiences to theaters. For our 20th celebration, we are going all out and we have some very special surprises and special guests planned. More than anything else, we are beyond elated at how this show has grown over the decades and how much a nomination and a trophy means to this community. It is a true validation of the extraordinary creative work that contributes to the success of the best films of the year”
Said Brady, “We have come a long way from the first year when Quentin Tarantino backed our vision and agreed to be a part of our celebration and served as a judge of this unique art form. This year’s show will be extraordinarily special and we are looking forward to continuing our mission of honoring the best work our industry has delivered over the past year.”
Confirmed judges for this year include producer Richard Suckle (Wonder Woman), writer/director Sam Email (“Mr. Robot”), producer Anthony Bregman (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), director Hugh Welchmann (Loving Vincent), advertising executive Thomas Benski, film industry veteran David Dinerstein, cinematographer Dion Beebe, and over two dozen industry luminaries.
The celebratory show, which routinely sells out draws a heavy industry crowd of studio and network marketing executives, representatives from creative agencies, media and celebrities.
In total, Golden Trailer Awards are presented to winners across 107 diverse categories. Last year, more than 1000 studio marketing executives, movie fans, celebrities and trailer editors were on hand to celebrate as Create won the top honor for their work on Disney/ Marvel Studios’ Black Panther trailer titled “Crown,” which was lauded with the “Best of Show” award. Netflix, Fox (with Fox Searchlight and FX), and Warner Bros (with HBO and New Line Cinema) were also big winners of the night taking home 13 Golden Trailer Awards each.
