LUXUO speaks with Fiona McKay about taking over the reigns of the Asian Academy Creative Awards, surviving the pandemic and her greatest inspirations. serves as the pinnacle of achievement in content creation and media production, honouring excellence in media platforms including television, film, digital and streaming.
When Michael McKay and I first founded the AACA in 2018, I had thought to myself “We’ve started on the right foot.” Passion, Integrity and Respect are three key words for us. We hold on strongly to our missions and that was how the AACA came to fruition even during the most challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our first mission is to promote Asia Pacific’s talent and creativity to the international market. We honour our region’s talent and celebrate creative excellence.
How is judging done? Are there specific processes you have set up to uphold the credibility of the AACA? Singapore is a great location and we have an excellent collaboration with the Asia TV Forum. Plus, who doesn’t love coming to Singapore? That said, our member nations are starting to raise discussions over the possibility of hosting the Awards. Australia, Japan and South Korea are the main nations discussed to date.Firstly, they are considered one of the most prestigious awards across the Asia Pacific. The Awards are peer judged by esteemed individuals in the industry from around the world.
