Each year, the International Film Music Critics Association announces its awards. These awards are important for Soundtrack World since we are involved in the selection process for the nominees and the winners, and we have been doing that for the fourth time. We announced the nominations two weeks ago, but now it is time to announce the winners, with Bear McCreary being the big winner. If you are curious about my favorites, I announced my eSWay Awards last week.
You can find all the winners below, and if you want more information about these awards and their winners, you can read more about them in full detail in the official press release or watch the video at the bottom of this page.
