The Feds Sydney wins ‘Best Childrens Factual Television’ award at the 2011 ATOM Awards for ABC3 interactive music show ‘Stay Tuned’
Stay Tuned, a 30 part, multi-platform, multi-band, interactive music show commissioned by ABC3 and produced by The Feds Sydney, picked up the prestigious 2011 Atom award for ‘Best Childrens Factual Television’ in Melbourne last week.
The show is based on online audience interaction, with viewers sending in video questions for the Music blogging hosts prior to their interviews with music stars.
The Feds wanted to create a music show that was driven by the viewers.
Says Michael Cook, EP and owner of The Feds: “A lot of sweat and tears went into the project so it’s great to be both acknowledged and awarded by ATOM. The Feds are conceptualising and delivering innovative content that stands out in the ever-evolving media landscape and Stay Tuned is a fantastic indictment of that.”
Australian Teachers of Media (ATOM) is a professional organisation of media educators and industry professionals who are dedicated to the ongoing development of an innovative and diverse screen and media culture in Australia.
