The South China Morning Post has picked up three prizes at the 19th annual w3 Awards, presented by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts in the United States to recognise outstanding work in digital media.
The Post’s flagship video interview programme, Talking Post with Yonden Lhatoo, won gold in the category of “general video – news and politics”.
The winning episode, produced by the Post’s video team, takes a deep dive into Hong Kong’s notorious “coffin homes” and highlights the plight of the city’s underprivileged families forced to live in dire conditions.
The Post’s food and culture programme, Eat Drink Asia, won silver at the w3 Awards for “video series – food and drink”. Each episode of the show focuses on an ingredient, dish or cooking technique, and tells the story of its origins, evolution, cultural impact and international influence.
The five-part podcast series, Inside China’s demographic revolution, also won silver in the “podcast individual episodes – news and specials category”. Each episode delves into an aspect of China’s shifting demographics and discusses its impact on the country’s economy and society.
“Once again, our award-winning journalists have made us proud,” Post editor-in-chief Tammy Tam said. “Our audiovisual content is right up there with the best from around the world, and we are pleased to see the judges recognise the top-quality journalism that the Post is known for.”
