A. 15 July: Attention APCP members: Registration for the Canary Islands Scouting closes!
For yet another year, the FCPC Canary Islands Advertising Film Forum is preparing to put the islands on the film production map. The first week of September, from 2 to 5 September, Lanzarote will become the epicentre of advertising cinema with a famtrip that promises to reconnect participants with the industry ecosystem of the Canary Islands.
This exclusive event will not only offer the opportunity to live the unique experience of the “island of volcanoes”, but also to discover the European paradise hidden on the island of La Graciosa. With limited places, it is designed for those who wish to include the Canary Islands in their sights for future productions.
Organised by the Canary Islands Audiovisual Cluster and the Society for Economic Development of the Canary Islands (Proexca), in collaboration with the Lanzarote Film Commission and the APCP Association of Advertising Film Producers, this event is an unmissable event for professionals in the sector.
We will be attended by producers and production companies from our associated companies. If you are a member of APCP and you are interested, don’t miss this opportunity to discover all that the Canary Islands has to offer to the world of advertising film and contact us! The deadline for entries is 15 July – see you in Lanzarote!
B. 17th of July: FIAP Awards: extension of the deadline for entries
FIAP, the festival that for 55 years has recognised creativity in all advertising formats in Ibero-America, begins a new era based on excellence and innovation.
In partnership with PRODU, the leading provider of information for the Spanish-speaking entertainment, advertising and technology industry, they present a new concept: to recognise excellence in ideas that transform, inspire, elevate and excite audiences.
ENTRY AND VOTING REQUIREMENTS:
The voting requirements for the FIAPs will be the same as those we require of companies when entering any of the categories. In other words, entrants will be required to complete the entry form with supporting materials that validate the criteria of originality, creativity, execution and achievement, as these are the criteria on which the judges will be judging. In all cases, audiovisual material in the specified formats is required.

Enter your email address and you will immediately receive a message with instructions on how to complete your registration and log in to the system, and you will be ready to start uploading your FIAP 2024 entries!
