Oh, And Can You Also Please Stop Making Overly Long Trailers That Are Essentially A Compressed Version Of The Entire Movie?

Dear Edwina,

Maybe I missed it, but it seems as though your vendor map is missing Kaleidoscope Film, one of Hollywood's original Trailer Houses founded by Andrew J. Kuehn who moved Kaleidoscope Films to Hollywood in 1968. 

Here is a Variety article about the beginning of the Fiber era between Kaleidoscope and Paramount in 1994 that includes quotes from then Kaleidoscope President, Steve Panama.

MonKeyArtAwards has always pursued a niche strategy (as marketing weenies like to say) focusing narrowly on print & outdoor advertising.

Our vendor map currently features a number of agencies that handle trailers in addition to print; however, if we were to include all trailer houses as well, it would add over 50 new locations to our already crowded landscape. More importantly, it would be a total pain in the ass to make those additions.

And while we’re at it, we are still miffed at how you trailer people muscled in on the Key Art Awards many years ago. They are awards for key art, for chrissake! You don’t see any of us CMYK-stained wretches sniffing around the Golden Trailer Awards now do you?

Is Online Print or AV? It's certainly not Key Art, so ditch that too. Posters rule!
