It might be because it's copy/pasted from a PM they had (idk just guessing)

@Honey Bee (Rebooted) could you repost the logo?

We've come to a realization...

We're missing a category. So, let me introduce to you:

Best Concept Art
​
I don't think this has been done in the past, but we decided that we'd like to separate concept art from presentation since there's been a huge uptick in concept art creation in recent years. So, pick your favorite singular piece of concept art from this year and post your nomination!

In the years we have done Best Concept Art I think @TheDesignPirate aka MonorailRed swept the category, but given how many artists we have had this year it will be interesting to see who gets nominated!

Are we just talking about any more traditional art done for a project?

I think that in recent years there has been just so many people trying their hand at concept art that the category deserves to come back. There's definitely a pool of "standby" artists, but we've seen a bunch of projects this year with the odd piece of concept art from someone who doesn't usually try their hand at it as well. I'm super interested to see what pieces get nominated.

I’m gonna get a little self-indulgent here, but I also want to nominate some people and projects I feel are sorely missing

Best Imagineer- @Disney Dad 3000
Best New Imagineer (Imagineer who started in 2021)-
Best Competition- It Can Always Be Worse (Now they’re all represented!)
Best Host/ Judge- Might be cheating, but the whole judging team from SAVII made the game amazing!
Best Team- Team Bailey- SYWTBAI
Best Project-
Best Project in a Competition- SeaWorld redo from SYWTBAI project one by Team Bailey
Best Park (open brainstorming or competition)- I’m going self indulgent here and saying Disney’s Wild Kingdom by yours truly
Best Video- Lycan trailer by @AceAstro SYWTBAI
Best Concept Art- All the art in Rebirth: A New Frontier by Team Reality in SAVII (the Expansion stanza)
Best Presentation- I’ll have to think on this one

Any single piece of drawn or rendered concept art. It can be any piece from any project. As long as it was made in 2021.


Also, I just watched this again for the first time in a while and I forgot how proud I was of it, so I have one more self indulgent nomination:

Best Video - Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary - The Magic of Memories (JokersWild)

Then I’ll be self indulgent by nominating Rocky The Mole For Best Concept Art

I’ll admit technically he’s no Mona Lisa, but who could say no to that face?

  • Best Imagineer: @Tegan pilots a chicken : She is a force to be reckoned with countless of skills that make her a great armchair imagineer. She is skilled at creating artwork, custom music, and her writing abilities are off the charts. In particular her Metroid ride created for The Sorcerer's Apprentice stands out to me as an example of something that she can do all on her own. It contains layouts, dialogue, descriptions, a custom soundtrack, and a love for what she does.
  • Best New Imagineer: @TheSorcerersApprentice : Just take a look through the work they have presented in their Efteling ~ World of Wonders thread. It is very impressive for someone who joined the forums this year, and contains plenty of creative and detailed projects that all deserve to be celebrated! I encourage everyone to read through that massive project when you have the chance :) If you want to see some of their more Disney geared work take a look at their Idea Box! Plenty of great concepts involving Disney IP/
  • Best Competition: The Sorcerers Apprentice Season 7 : While it didn't occur during the anniversary it was a great segue into the celebration thanks to its coverage of many competitions from years past while celebrating the future of Imagineering.
  • Best Host/ Judge: @spacemt354 : To start off with Space was one of the driving forces who put together Sorcerers Apprentice 7 , and (at least for me) made sure that everyone stayed on track and was communicating. In addition, Space has done plenty to help with the 20th Anniversary and Imaginarium ensuring they both got off their feet alongside with occasionally chiming in with his judging.
  • Best Team: Team Time from The Sorcerers Apprentice : I strongly believe that Team Time was consistently one of the strongest teams we have seen in the Imagineering forums in a while given their consistent top placements and large amount of wins this nomination should come as no surprise.
  • Best Project: Harley Quinn Kills the Joker by @Tegan pilots a chicken : Is it gory? Yes. Is it family friendly? No, not in the slightest. However I will stand by this being one of the most impressive projects not attached to any competition to be posted this year. It has a customized soundtrack curated and orchestrated by Tegan alongside concept art and a 36 page Google Doc also created by her to fully flesh out this project. You can tell that Tegan loves Harley Quinn, and this project oozes Harley's personality.
  • Best Project in a Competition: Jungle of Pixels by Team Soul from The Sorcerer's Apprentice Season 7 : I think this project shows that when everyone in one team comes together under a strong narrative and theme amazing things can be created. This project combined Animal Crossing, Metroid, Donkey Kong, Ring Fit Adventure, Yoshi, and Pikmin all into one land that makes cohesive sense while having great segues into every neighboring land. Every aspect of this project was detailed from unique music tracks for each page of the site to concept art for a variety of attractions to detailed write ups and mock ups for every aspect of the project. The members of Team Soul went above and beyond for this project.
  • Best Park: Disney's Great British Adventure by @Justinate : From the day this park was first posted I thought this was a really interesting concept acting as a clever spin on the typical castle parks by solely focusing on British IPs. I think in the end this concept worked out as it is a park I remembered for much of the year, and was a concept I genuinely enjoyed reading through.
  • Best Concept Art: The Streets of Tokyo Overview : What can I say I'm a sucker for these land overview drawings, I think they're very impressive given the amount of scale and detail that is required to get them all just right.

  • Best Video: Full Soundtrack - Scott Pilgrim vs the Universe by Team Realty Realtea Reelitin Reality : I just would like to celebrate the fact that the entire soundtrack for this show was able to be produced within the amount of time the team had, and it was just impressive what those who were doing the music could do. Hats off to them!
  • Best Presentation: Team Time's Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Concert Attraction Magazine : I think this was one of the best presentations from this year given just how unique of a presentation style it was, and how committed the team was to sticking to the presentation's theme. Everything was set up just like an edition of Attractions Magazine down to how the information for the project was fed to readers, an overall great job in terms of giving out information.
