Edi.09 Shortlist

Edi is the Swiss film award for advertising, industrial and corporate films. The competition is run under the patronage of the Federal Department of Home Affairs. It is the only competition in Switzerland that evaluates and awards commercial film productions in terms of their professional quality. An Edi win can also count towards Werbewoche's creative ranking among the newly defined, freely selectable awards. Commissioned productions that were produced by a Swiss production company or realized by Swiss filmmakers in the twelve months prior to the closing date for entries are eligible for the Edi. The jury is made up of experts from the film, commissioning and advertising sectors and rotates within the individual categories. The public vote, which was held for the first time this year in cooperation with 20 Minuten, has no influence on the decisions already made by the jury. However, the additional popular opinion is intended to enrich the competition and promote public interest in local advertising films. Voting is open from October 26 to November 1. Voting is possible at www.edinet.ch/shortlist, where the films can be viewed in full screen thanks to a microsite developed by Publisuisse. Anyone who can predict a correct Edi winner has a chance of winning movie tickets and five nano iPods with integrated video camera. Pan
