The entertainment industry celebrated the very best in motion picture marketing at the 19th Annual Golden Trailer Awards tonight at the Theatre at the Ace Hotel in Downtown, Los Angeles. More than 1,000 studio marketing executives, movie fans, celebrities and trailer editors were on hand as Create won the top honor for their work on the Black Panther trailer titled “Crown,” which was lauded with the “Best of Show” award. Netflix, Fox (with Fox Searchlight and FX), and Warner Bros (with HBO and New Line Cinema) were also big winners of the night taking home 13 Golden Trailer Awards each.

Best trailer vendors for 2018 included Trailer Park, which earned 9 trophies, while Mark Woollen & Associates and Buddha Jones each took home 7 Golden Trailer Awards statuettes a piece.

Black Panther was the top GTA winner of the night by film winning awards in a total of 4 categories, with “Best in Show,” “Best Action,” “Best Action TV Spot,” and “Best Music TV Spot.” “Stranger Things: Season 2” and “Westworld Season 2” won the most GTAs for television with each series winning 3 a piece and in the video game categories, “Call of Duty: WWII” won 3 awards.

The Golden Trailer Awards were launched in 1999 by Evelyn Watters and Monica Brady as a way to recognize the best of the best in worldwide motion picture and television marketing. The event has become one of the most anticipated award shows of the year.

“It was another amazing year for marketers and for moviegoers who love trailers,” said GTA Founder Evelyn Watters. “This competition recognizes a field of artists and editors who toil behind the scenes but are most responsible for filling theaters and getting people invested in what is coming soon to theaters around the world. Congratulations go out to all of this year’s honorees, but especially to the teams at Create, Disney, Marvel, Netflix, Fox, Warner Bros., Trailer Park, Mark Woollen & Associates and Buddha Jones, who created the most impactful and memorable trailers and marketing materials of the year. The judges couldn’t have been more wowed by their ingenuity and outstanding work.”
