DCM announces the nominees for the eighth annual Digital Cinema Media Awards, held in partnership with Campaign.

There are a remarkable number of submissions across six categories from a range of brands and agencies in 2024, with an overall Grand Prix prize also up for grabs.

I’m thrilled to see an exceptional selection of entries once again from an inspiring range of brands and agencies who have been uniquely maximising the unique cinema space to deliver the best media ideas, clever planning and smart execution for their campaigns.
