Passionate, dramatic and engaging

“Passionate, dramatic and engaging.” Some of the key words used by the judges of the 2009 AIBs (international media excellence awards) about the winning entries.  They highlight the qualities that make programmes stand out above others in their category, whether it be news, current affairs, documentaries or technology and marketing in support of programmes.  They apply equally to radio and TV, as well as online and mobile presentation.

Last year the winners provided insight into the drama and tension of elections; gave gripping insights into the lives of children and adults affected by war, natural disasters and HIV; put the spotlight on Korea, China and Africa among other places; and showed how innovative use could be made of  iPhones and online interaction.  You can see a full list of winners here or contact us for a copy of The Channel, Issue 1 2010 with a full write-up of the 2009 winners and runners-up

We are looking forward to equally compelling, exciting and innovative submissions to the 2010 AIBs.  With over a month left to the 2nd July closing date for entries, we are already hearing of exciting work on its way.  2010 promises to be another year when international broadcasting is able to demonstrate it’s continuing quality.
