There will either be a two-night live event in Singapore or a single live stream. “Either way, we will be honoring our award in grand style,” said Michael McKay, the president of the AAA.
“Entries are now open and there was some fantastic work produced right up until the lockdown. In th current production environment, it’s easy to forget but much of this great content is being devoured viewers and subscribers around the world right now,” McKay added.
“The aim of the AAAs is to promote AsiaPac content and creatives to the world, they celebrate excelle and serve as our major showcase so, from a marketing perspective, it makes sense for producers and platforms to have a strong showing,” McKay added.
