“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.
