2011 marks the first full-cycle of online submissions

It was announced last week by Vicangelo Bulluck, Executive Director of the NAACP Hollywood Bureau, that the submission period for the 43rd NAACP Image Awards is open. Submissions are being accepted online in motion picture, television, recording and literature.

The NAACP Image Awards is the nation’s premiere multi-culture awards show from an African-American point of view, celebrating the outstanding achievements and performances of people of color in the arts, as well as those individuals or groups who promote social justice through their creative endeavors.

This year marks the first full year that the NAACP Image Awards have accepted online submissions. Introduced last year as a test, online submissions were an overwhelming success and have been fully incorporated into the 2011 process.

Studios, networks, production companies, record labels, publishing houses, publicists, agents, managers and artists may submit for nomination. All submissions must be received at the NAACP Image Awards Office of Submissions in Los Angeles by 6:00 pm (PT,) Wednesday, November 30, 2011, to be eligible for consideration.

Eligible projects must have been distributed or aired nationally between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. Instructions, a complete list of submission categories and the online submission form can be found at www.naacpimaaeawards.net.
