Kerala Tourism’s ‘Your Moment is Waiting’ video wins the Golden City Gate award!
Kerala Tourism’s Your Moment Is Waiting’ video continued its winning streak with its latest achievement being the Golden City Gate Award, dubbed the Oscar of the travel industry.
The film bagged the award at the world’s leading travel trade show ITB Berlin 2011. The awards were presented during the Golden City Gate competition in Berlin during March 9 – 13.
“We are honoured by the award, which is a prestigious prize in the travel industry. This is the second time Kerala Tourism has received this award,” said Kerala Tourism Director M. Sivasankar.
Mr. Sivasankar received the award, which recognizes the best in tourism advertising across the world, from Wolfgang Jo Huschert, President of the Golden City Gate jury. There were six categories in the competition: city tourism, hotel, region, economy, spots and commercials and TV-Travel Magazine. The winners were picked by an international jury which considered visual performance, acoustic over impression, emotional effect, value of information, conception and creativity.
The members of the international jury were selected from a wide field, such as tourism, hotel and city-marketing, public relations, music, art, advertising agencies, managers of tourist offices, business and individual travellers, ministers and ambassadors.
‘Your Moment Is Waiting’, a three-minute ad film, premiered in London in September last year, had won an unprecedented three Pacific Asia Travel Association Gold Awards last month.
