Zurich sponsored Dalkey Literary Awards Emerging Writer announcement
Dalkey Literary Awards Novel of the Year announcement
This entry won bronze at the Sockies social media awards 2020.
Zurich sponsor the Dalkey Literary Festival and its awards – Novel of the Year and Emerging Writer.
Unfortunately due to Covid, this year’s festival was cancelled. Yet the awards were to go ahead. So how to make a virtual winners' announcement when the event was not being held?
I worked on bespoke creative videos stitching together the 6 nominated books in each category. I came up with the concept and storyboarded them, before Nat Navarro in indiepics animated them so beautifully. I wanted to create a seamless narrative that wove the themes of these impressive books into a beautiful story. The videos end with a zoom call from the judges to the unsuspecting winner. Hopefully we did the winners justice.
