Adding a Screener (video upload process)

ACE has partnered with Indee to launch a new screener website for viewing videos of submissions. In order for your project to be seen by members as well as non-members, it must be uploaded and shared via the Indee site. Adding a video is NOT mandatory for “nomination submissions”.

  1. Multiple videos for a title must be uploaded together.
  2. A screening fee will be charged based on digital security preferences and number of videos.
  3. Gather any needed assets, graphics (video image, poster), video file, title, description, etc.
  4. To begin video upload process, click here: SUBMIT SCREENER>>
  5. Once on the Indee site, click on the “Get Started” button to begin the upload.

Once the nominees are decided, all nominated content must upload video(s) for screening through our ACE screener platform at Indee.

NOTE: Networks and studios are asked to submit in only one category.  The ACE Blue Ribbon Committee that presides over television entries reserves the right to change a submission category as it sees fit. Special, self-contained episodes that are not part of the series narrative, such as Holiday specials, should be submitted in the TV Movie/Miniseries category.

“It is our hope that this adjustment to the television series categories will help reflect the vast landscape of outstanding offerings on the small screen.  Separating the comedy and drama categories will allow for a more expansive and varied selection of nominees, and increasing the number of nominees in each category will highlight even more editors’ indelible contributions to the television medium.” ACE Board of Directors
