Over the past eight years, the Prism Prize has become one of Canada’s most important music awards, recognizing the craft of music videos and the talented creators that take them from concept to reality. With these creators in our hearts, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting safety measures implemented by all levels of government, we are saddened to announce the cancellation of the 2020 Prism Prize Grand Prize screening and awards presentation, originally slated for May 11, 2020.
This situation has profoundly affected the creative community. That is why we will be keeping all Prism Prize Top 20 finalists in the running for the Grand Prize. All finalists are also eligible for the Audience Award; we encourage you to vote and show your support for your favourite Canadian creators.
We look forward to celebrating our Grand Prize winner and yet-to-be-announced Special Award honourees at a later date. Until then, we are working on several virtual programming initiatives. More on that soon.
