OGILVY JOHANNESBURG WINS THE TELEVISION/CINEMA/ONLINE FILM GRAND LIA AT THE
25TH ANNUAL LONDON INTERNATIONAL AWARDS

 
(London, 8 November 2010) The 25th LIA judging was held at the Wynn/Encore Hotel in Las Vegas, convening over a ten-day period. The juries, led by their respective Jury Presidents, viewed and scored every entry within their medium ensuring that all the work was judged equally. They concluded with final discussions to determine Grand LIAs, Statue Winners and Finalists.

Ogilvy Johannesburg win a Grand LIA for Television/Cinema/Online Film and two Gold Statues at the 2010 London International Awards.

The Grand LIA was awarded for their Television/Cinema/Online Film spot “Selinah” for Topsy Foundation. Only two Grand LIAs were awarded across 13 media. “Selinah” also won two Gold Statues.

• Gold - Television/Cinema/Online Film - Public Service/Social Welfare
• Gold - Television/Cinema/Online Film - Music Original

“Winning a Grand LIA in this year’s Show is huge,” remarked Barbara Levy, President of LIA. “Especially when you consider that only two were awarded out of a potential thirteen. Their work has been acclaimed worldwide for many years. We are really proud to honour their work in our 25th year. Congratulations to Ogilvy Johannesburg.”
