“Bold ambition was a big theme among this year’s winners—whether it be through mind-bending design or a reimagining of iconic spaces (and outer spaces), it often takes a leap of faith to grab an audience’s attention these days,” said Ashley Falls, Executive Director of Clio Entertainment. “The creative teams that earned this year’s statues have proven once again that there are no bounds to what they can accomplish when they have the means and opportunity to execute the right idea.”
Clios were also presented to specialty award winners in recognition of their contributions to advancing the industry and shaping our popular culture. Barbara Glazer was awarded the 2022 Clio Entertainment Lifetime Achievement Award in celebration of her storied career, which includes creating trailers and creative campaigns for iconic films like “Platoon,” “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy, “The Sixth Sense,” “Love Actually,” the “Pirates of the Caribbean” trilogy, “Kill Bill” and more. Glazer now dedicates much of her time to non-profit work for A PLACE CALLED HOME, an organization whose mission is to empower and uplift the lives of at-risk youth. Additionally, Film2Future was given the 2022 Clio Entertainment Impact Award, presented by The Walt Disney Studios and MOCEAN, for their efforts to change the face of Hollywood by giving underserved LA-based teenagers access to professional-level filmmaking programs and employment opportunities.
