Aside from the awards, Preview Magazine also highlighted its #IMAPreviewGirl campaign, which was introduced in their September 2013 issue featuring “It” girl, Georgina Wilson as she was transformed into four different personas. Using the hasthag, netizens are able to express their various interpretations on what it means to be a Preview girl. Because of this, the Preview Editorial Team invited a few of their director friends to create short films of what #IMAPreviewGirl means to them and presented these throughout the evening.
To view these excellently-crafted films, visit the Junkyard. Make sure to watch all of them, and pay close attention to “How Not to Instagram” by Joel Limchoco.
