The Pedro Sienna Awards (Spanish: Premios Pedro Sienna) are honors granted for Chilean audiovisual production. Named for silent film director Pedro Sienna, they were given for the first time in 2006.[1] Outstanding artists are awarded for the development and strengthening of national audiovisual media and the best works, artists, and technicians of the production of works released in the country between January and December of the previous year.
They came about as a result of Law No. 19.981 of 2005 that created the Council of the Art and Audiovisual Industry (CAIA) and the Audiovisual Promotion Fund, both under the National Council of Culture and the Arts (CNCA).[1][2]
Pedro Sienna was one of the forerunners of Chilean cinema, directing El Húsar de la Muerte (1925) and winning the National Prize for Art in 1966.[3]
The aim of the awards is to recognize an author, artist, technician, or producer who stands out for their artistic quality or projection of their audiovisual work and the relevant activities of dissemination and preservation of audiovisual production.
Except for the Career award, given by the CAIA, the awards are granted by a jury. Two pre-selection committees choose the nominees in the categories for feature films and short films.
All winners receive the Pedro Sienna sculpture. It was created by Cristina Pizarro [es], an outstanding sculptor, and inspired by the lens of a camera.[3] It is made of stainless steel with a base of black granite.
