*Uses of GenAI in the creative development or production of work are likely to be the work of creatives and producers, so aren't the focus of these awards. But we understand that some of those divisions are less clear today, so please do speak to the APG if your case blurs these boundaries and might be eligible.

For cases from any era that people wanted to enter before but that for whatever reason didn’t make it.
