Aurora Awards are unique in that the judging panel is comprised of past winners of one or more Aurora Awards. According to the organization’s website (www.auroraawards.com) work is “judged by accredited and professional peers who know excellence when they see it.”
“Crossroads of Change” was judged in the Spring 2012 cycle of the semi-annual competition. In the critique provided with the award notification, the Aurora Awards judges noted the “Best elements” to be “Nice blend of old and new footage” and “Good content.”
The film was recognized with two awards earlier in 2012. “Crossroads of Change” was honored with a bronze award from Summit Creative International, which recognizes and celebrates the creative accomplishments of small and medium sized advertising agencies and other creative groups with annual billings under $30 million. It received a Certificate of Commendation for “superlative achievement” in the Audio-Visual/Films category from the Tennessee Association of Museums (TAM).
