The Publishing Prize is an annual award for films, websites, and newspapers, magazines, books and other printed products. The prize has been conferred annually since 1990 in about 30 categories. The prize is considered the most comprehensive communication contest.

Entry categories

[edit]

The entry categories have evolved over the years to ensure fair competition across a wide and diverse range of communication purposes, audiences, and budgets. For example, print publications can be product catalogues, marketing materials, magazines for company employees, annual reports, educational materials, public authority information publications, tourism and travel guides.

Likewise, the website categories include informational sites, online magazines and newspapers, and sites for members of organizations; the film categories cover the purposes of information-giving, instruction, and marketing.

Participants

[edit]

The list of winners in 2016 included health information projects; a city's social services division; the Swedish Royal Opera; a membership organization for writers; a secondary school; the Volvo Car Group; a cookery-focused website; Médecins Sans Frontières.

Any company, organization, government agency, municipality, publisher, agency, consultant or individual can register films, websites, magazines, books, annual reports and other printed products with the competition.

The Jury

[edit]

The jury is made up of active communication experts, such as copywriters, designers, journalists, editors, interaction designers, producers, and directors. The jury not only assesses design, but also gives points to typography, text content, visual content, reprographic quality, usability, cinematography, sound, and direction.

The yearly contest cycle

[edit]

The jury first nominates three to five candidates in each category. The nominees are made public in August/September each year. The prizes are handed out at a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden, in October/November. The winners receive a statuette and a certificate. All nominees receive a certificate.

The jury also awards the Publishing Prize Grand Prix to the best of the category winners.

The prize statuette

[edit]

The statuette for The Publishing Prize was designed by Petter Antonisen, who is a freelance graphic designer and art director.

The statuette is made of steel. Through electrolysis the surface is covered by a layer of copper, whereupon the statuette is patinated by Stockholm sculptor Bo Andersson. One of his specialities is metallic works of art. Through various surface treatments, he creates unique colors on the metal.
