NATO videos awarded four international prizes
02 June 2010
1 MIN READ
NATO videos picked up four international awards, including a gold award, at the World Media Festival event in Hamburg in late May. It was the first time the organisation had won awards at the event, where other competitors included BBC, MTV, Spanish RTVE and major blue chip companies such as Porsche, Audi and Bayer.
NATO’s entries, which collected one gold and three silver awards, were produced by its Public Diplomacy Division’s Corporate Communications Section (CCS). Speaking following the announcement, Gerlinde Niehus, Head of CCS, said: “These awards show that NATO can compete with some big international players in producing quality video content. We’re delighted that this has been recognised and look forward to competing again.”
Two of the awards, including the gold, went to NATO Review, NATO’s online magazine (www.nato.int/review). Its gold award went to a three minute video that illustrates the linkages between financial and security risks and incorporates Icelandic music with a link to the Eurovision song contest. Its silver award went to its video analysing security aspects of the melting of the Arctic Sea.
The two other silver award winners focused on Afghanistan and NATO’s enlargement policy.
The first, entitled ‘Afghanistan: The road to stability’, looks behind the scenes of NATO’s and ISAF’s engagement in Afghanistan, listens to Afghan voices and examines how the country has coped with conflict and how it has affected people there - from locals to international personnel.
The second, ‘NATO’s Open Door’ focuses on how the Alliance has grown, with each wave of enlargement, since its beginning in 1949.
