Co-Founder and Managing Partner of the international post production company Cosmo Street, Yvette Cobarrubias, has been named Chairperson of the 2022 AICP Post Awards.
‘Yvette is the perfect choice to lead the Post Awards this year,’ said Matt Miller, President and CEO of AICP. ‘She has a long history of leadership in the industry and at AICP, from her serving on the West Regional and the National Board of Directors to her role with our various committees and her co-founding of the AICP Women’s Forum. At Cosmo Street, she’s played a key role in nurturing and promoting some of our industry’s most talented editors and artists, and her company’s work has won awards in just about every advertising competition in existence.’
‘I’m unbelievably honoured,’ said Cobarrubias of her selection as the Post Awards Chairperson, who is selected by the AICP Post Awards Executive Committee. ‘I’ve worked hard to make a difference in our industry, so being asked by people I greatly respect and love is a real career highlight for me. I see the Post Awards as another example of the AICP’s significant work in the inclusion of post production. It’s a recognition of our voices, our perspective and the integral part we play in the process.’
While this show is in its 21st year honouring the best of the post production crafts, Cobarrubias is only the second person to serve as Chair for the AICP Post Awards; she succeeds Chris Franklin of Big Sky Edit, who led the judging of the competition in 2020 and 2021. ‘Chris did a remarkable job of selecting some incredible people to focus on the craft and the art of post production, from editing to effects, graphics, color and audio,’ she added. ‘While I intend to mix things up a bit, I’ll happily follow his lead, as he’s one of the preeminent editors in the world.’
