2010 Inside Film Awards Nominations Announced
The Inside Film Awards 2010 nominations were announced at Sydney’s Pavilion restaurant to a bright and chatty morning crowd of nominees, film identities and media representatives. The NSW Government was also represented by the Minister of Arts and Fair Trading, Virginia Judge, who spoke with her customary enthusiasm and knowledge for matters cultural despite some un-fair intrusive personal attention from sections of the press in recent weeks.

Rhys Muldoon, the day’s MC, and nomination announcers Jack Thompson and one of Australia’s most talented up and coming actresses Morgan Griffin, gave the proceedings the right mix of pace and humour – something of a trademark for the IF Awards over its twelve year history. The nominations embraced seventeen categories both in the ten people’s choice categories as well as craft categories, Independent Spirit and Rising Talent and the nominees in attendance seemed genuinely appreciative of the involvement in the awards of the film going public. Significantly, two new TV based categories have been added this year, Contribution to television and the IF Out of the Box Awards

There is a short window of opportunity open for anyone who wishes to attend the IF Awards Finals night on Sunday 14 November being held at the City Recital Hall, Angel Place, Sydney with an after party at ivy. Tickets are on sale now at www.cityrecitalhall.com and are for over 18 years only.
