HPA Awards Innovation & Technology

Since 2006, the HPA Awards have been the standard bearer for creative achievement, outstanding artistry, and engineering excellence in an industry embracing an expanding array of groundbreaking technologies and creativity.

In response to the evolving industry, this prominent accolade has been reimagined to modernize the technical recognition that HPA provides. Previously presented as one special category, HPA has expanded the former Engineering Excellence Award into its own multi-category awards program. The HPA Awards Innovation & Technology will now offer recognition in categories covering the entire production life cycle from pre-production through distribution and audience experience. This expanded category list celebrates technologies that materially improve the professional media and entertainment ecosystem, spanning film, television, streaming, advertising, and branded content for lifestyle and retail experiences.
