It’s the red carpet event of screencasting! You can tell by all the tuxedo (shirt)-wearing celebrities who will be on hand.

Join us Thursday, January 19, at 2pm (ET) for our monthly live web show, The Forge, where we will announce the winners of the 2011 ScreenChamp Awards. (Add to your calendar )

UPDATE: Click here to watch the live show at 2pm ET or view the recording later.

The ScreenChamp Awards recognize screencasting excellence in three categories: industry, education, and entertainment. On the show, our expert judges will announce the winner they chose in each category, and offer some erudite commentary on what they liked best and what could be improved across the submissions.

Plus we’ll reveal the Best in Show winner, as selected by YOUR votes during the end of last year!

Will there be drumrolls? We can only hope!

Ridiculously cool trophies? Certainly!

Aforementioned tuxedo shirts? Being screenprinted this week!

See you Thursday right here on the blog…(no need to don your formal wear, though you certainly can if you’re looking for an excuse)!

PS – As with every episode of The Forge…if you can’t make the live show, we’ll miss you! But you can watch the recording later. Just subscribe to the blog or our YouTube channel so you know when we post it.

Prizes for three category winners! Best in Show gets a trophy & MacBook Pro!
