On Friday, the All Japan Radio and Television Commercial Confederation (or ACC) announced the winners of the 47th ACC CM Festival. The annual event gathers radio and television ad producers to compete for the title of best commercial.

The winner in the television category was a series of ads for Hitachi Maxell DVDs, which can be viewed on the campaign's site. In the radio category, an ad for the National brand of air cleaners (Matsushita Electric Industrial) took the grand prize.

Both commercials also won the Journalist Award, which are judged by a committee representing newspapers and news programs.

Among the festival's special awards are Best Performance honors, given this year to Tomoya Nagase, Norika Fujiwara, Kohei Otomo, Miya Motojima, and Tommy Lee Jones.

A presentation ceremony for the awards will take place on November 1.
