Video Design Awards

Winning is a trust and conversion asset you can reuse everywhere. With DesignRush Awards, the ROI typically shows up in:

• Sales enablement: winner status + laurels/badges strengthen proposals, pitch decks, and “why us” sections, helping reduce friction in late-stage deals.
• Visibility inside DesignRush: winners get stronger positioning on category and awards-related pages, which can support inbound interest from businesses browsing agencies.
• Marketing content: winner announcement + shareable assets give you ready-to-publish social, newsletter, and PR angles to keep your work circulating beyond the campaign window.

DesignRush Awards can include public voting windows for eligible competitions. When voting is enabled, visitors vote directly on the competition page and those votes contribute to the final result for voting-based outcomes.

Some formats (for example finalist showcases) may be displayed without voting. The page will clearly indicate whether voting is active and the exact voting dates for that cycle.

DesignRush Awards winners receive:

• Winner recognition on the platform (winner status displayed on the awards experience)
• Digital laurels/badges for website, proposals, and social
• Winner announcement visibility during the awards cycle (shareable winner feature you can circulate)
• Stronger placement opportunities tied to awards and community exposure as the program pushes winners and top projects

DesignRush Awards entries are reviewed with a focus on both design excellence and effectiveness. In practice, evaluation is based on criteria like:

• Concept and originality
• Visual craft and consistency
• Clarity, usability, and execution quality (especially for web and digital)
• How well the work solves the stated problem for the intended audience Judging is category-aware, so what matters most depends on whether it’s branding, web, product, digital, etc.

Yes. To enter the DesignRush Awards, you submit through an active subscription. The subscription is what unlocks your entry, your competition placement, and the related winner assets/visibility if you place.
