Tripfilms Announces The Nominees For The 2013 Trippy Awards

Is it awards season already? It feels like it was just yesterday I was watching the Oscars and getting angry at all the Hollywood actors who had recently copied me and grew out their beards (I’m looking at you Affleck — first you steal Jen, now my facial identity).

The premiere travel video site, Tripfilms.com, just announced their nominees for the annual Trippy Awards, the most prestigious travel video award out there (and about twice as important as the Emmys).

Voting itself is open to the public and will last through June 23, and includes such categories as Filmmaker of the Year, Host of the Year, Newcomer of the Year, and Best Travel Show. Unfortunately, controversial category Most Nauseating Use of a GoPro was eliminated after public outcry last year.

Below are the links for the five nominees for Filmmaker of the Years. Turn off Arrested Development tonight, stop listening to the new Daft Punk album, and sit back on your bed and check out some amazing travel videos and vote today.

• 8 Miles from Home

• Two for the Road

• The Dime Traveler

• RAW Travels

• Mindful Wanderlust
