"'The First Annual One Show Entertainment Awards' signals the first time any part of The One Show has been held outside of New York," commented Warlick. "For the past 33 years, New Yorkers have attended The Annual One Show, advertising's equivalent of the Oscars, and realized that the advertising industry's creative work represents artistic achievements of a very high order. Brands are now seeking to collaborate with the creators of movies, shows, games and web-based videos to support and, in some appropriate way, become part of the entertainment. We look forward to celebrating the best examples in this new kind of collaboration on October 7."

Winning entries will be added to The Paley Center for Media's preeminent collection of over 140,000 television and radio programs, advertisements, and new media content, which is available to the public in New York and Los Angeles.
