Cre2c3ndo
The UK Filk Awards presented at Cre2c3ndo 2011
Administrator: Lissa Allcock.
Awards, made by Melusine, Miki and Ωmega, were based on a suggestion Tiggy made at Van der Filk as to what Melusine could wear to the ceremony black or red full ballroom gown since "It isn't all over until the Fat Lady Sings". This brought the Queen of the Night aria to mind and from there we got the other three
Best Serious Song: Queen of the Night from The Magic Flute (dressed by Melusine)
Best Silly Song: Jester from Rigaletto (dressed by Miki)
At Con Performance: Toreador from Carmen (dressed by Miki)
Filk Gold: Valkyere from Die Walküre female Viking costume (dressed by Melusine with weaponry by Ωmega)
Melusine wore red and black to present the awards, in keeping with the con logo. The 'certificates' were small librettos containing information about the SAM awarded, the nominations and winner results

Mini Sam
This was a special award presented to Ωmega to recognise all her hard work in creating the SAMs in recent years.
It was a small version of the SAM and had been 'dressed' by Jared Walker using Fimo black waistcoated SAM holding a mini SAM in one hand and a paintbrush in the other.
