The original deadline was October 6 Editorial Director Mark Tungate commented, “We’ve noticed that many entrants are putting careful thought into their submissions. This extension allows for that extra time to polish work and to submit entries that truly reflect their best efforts.”

This year’s Epica Awards brings several innovative features to the table. For the first time, an AI will be part of the jury in an experimental role, offering its take on the creative ideas behind the entries. Dagmara Szulce, Global Executive Director of the International Advertising Association (IAA), will preside over the jury, bringing years of industry experience and an objective viewpoint to the role. Also notable is the introduction of an AI Craft category focusing on artificial intelligence in visual and video creation.
