The deadline is 11:59 p.m. today, 23 February: applications for a DCP must be received by the award office by then. All information, including the conditions of participation, can be found on the DCP website. You can also create the account required for submission there.
Nominations for the two categories Studio of the Year and Player of the Year are excluded. These can still be submitted until 30 January.
The schedule for the subsequent steps has also been set for some time: On 27 February, the expert jury meeting will take place, at which twelve expert juries will prepare the nominations for most of the categories. The main jury, which will meet on 26 and 27 March, will then decide on the actual winners, who will be announced at the gala. This year, the gala will take place on 29 April at the Residenz in Munich.
