Radio Current Affairs’s Coordinators Brit Jensen and Liam O’Brien on this year’s competition:

‘After an intense two days of listening and discussion, the PRIX EUROPA Radio Current Affairs jury concluded its work on Tuesday evening just before 20:00. We heard a wide range of stories through 16 investigative and current affairs audio programmes from all over Europe. Stories included serial killers, medical malpractice, financial fraud, murder and state/government failures amongst others. The standard of production, across the board, has been very impressive this year - as well as the impact and response each production generated in its own respective country. Real, meaningful change. With a standard like this year, it's impossible to choose a winner - so all eyes, and ears, on Friday evenings Award Ceremony!’

Åke Blomström Masterclass @ PRIX EUROPA 2022

…has come to a successful end!

15 lucky students had been chosen by a selection committee to participate in the Masterclass and had the unique opportunity to learn from the best radio documentary makers in Europe, to glean their secrets and get their advice.

Tim Desmond, Chair of the Åke Blomstrom committee summarising the two successful days at PRIX EUROPA 2022:

‘The 2022 Åke Blomström Masterclass @PRIX EUROPA took place over the weekend at Potsdam. 15 young feature makers from 11 different countries in Europe spent two intensive days training with four PRIX EUROPA winning masters of their craft. Agnieszka Czyżewska Jacquemet (Polski Radio Lublin), Daria Corrias (RAI), Christian Lerch (SWR) and  Daniel Valesco (SR) took the young feature makers through the process of creating and realising their award winning features. The students pitched programme ideas over the weekend for feedback from the masters and lively discussions took place about all aspects of feature making. The Masterclass was declared a great success!‘

 

PRIX EUROPA 2022 started!

PRIX EUROPA 2022 started!

Political PRIX EUROPA kicks off in Potsdam today

Under the slogan "Media that matter" this 36th edition of the European media festival boasts a host of political themes across all media and genres: from television fiction series like "The Year of Fortuyn", digital media projects like "Automated Election Reports" or the podcast series "War On The Internet" to classic investigations like "Planet Killers", "The Russian Hitmen" or the radio documentary "Utøya Revisited". All in all, 187 productions from about 30 countries are nominated.

“What makes PRIX EUROPA different from other festivals" says Dr. Katja Wildermuth, Director General of the BR (Bayerischer Rundfunk) and PRIX EUROPA-President, “is that adjudication is not in the hands of traditional juries but in the hands of the media-makers themselves." Over 500 professionals from all over Europe will be taking part in this process, enabling a week-long exchange that has become increasingly important, Wildermuth continues: "PRIX EUROPA has taken up the cause of fighting for the fellowship of Europe by displaying all of its cultural diversity. Particularly in times of uncertainty and crisis, independent high quality media are more important than ever to foster informed debate and to keep societies together."

The Awards Ceremony will take place on Friday, 28 October 2022, in the Schinkelhalle in Potsdam. The Jury groups will confer 14 awards to the Best European TV-, Radio- and Digital Media Programmes of the Year, culminating in the announcement of this year's European Journalist of the Year, which honours a journalistic game-changer who has shown extraordinary creativity, courage and impact on their society or audience.

The EBU Cultural Forum 2022

Jonathan Broughton, Head of Strategy at the EBU

EBU Cultural Forum at PRIX EUROPA Friday, 28 October 2022, 10:00-13:00

From boardrooms to newsrooms, we all share the same challenges – at a time when Public Service Media (PSM) companies are competing with tech giants and struggling with shrinking budgets, we also need to serve both the traditional radio audiences and new groups of listeners searching for vibrant and relevant podcasts. Podcast versus broadcast - how to serve audiences with different demands and ideals? How to optimise formats on different platforms and in radio channels?

Moderated by  Mirko Sular, DG Radio, RTVSLO

10:00   WELCOME

10:10   KEYNOTE : Challenges Ahead of PSM radio

Jonathan Broughton, Head of Strategy, EBU

Looking at the big picture of the challenges and opportunities ahead of PSM in the coming years. What are the trends or most probable developments in the area of online distribution, of changes in the audience demographics and in the content itself? Are the PSM media reflecting these challenges well in their current plans and programme production and scheduling?

 

10:40   The Big Distribution Questions

Mattias Hermansson, Swedish Radio

The fast development in media changes the basical structures for how information, distribution and audience relationships are built. The questions for PSM companies also becomes existential in a reality where listeners chooses digital formats: Are PSM companies content providers or platforms - and what role are we supposed to play in peoples lives? And depending on what your answers are, how does it affect the content and the way different formats we are distributed?

 

11:15   PANEL DISCUSSION : Broadcast or podcast ?

Through a series of case studies from different perspectives – from the station manager to content producers – the panel will be looking at various aspects of spoken word audio content both on linear (and live) radio broadcast as well as moving these formats online while also creating original podcast productions aimed at those who are not listening to linear broadcast anymore. Are the traditional radio genres competitive with the online content produced by  commercial players? Is podcast a standalone format or a just a modern word to promote the already popular genres such as radio drama or documentary series? What do the PSM radio teams need to do to use the skills of their professional employees but at the same time also attract new independent producers to embrace the full advantage of the growing popularity of on-demand content especially among younger generations? The panel will present their perspectives and the audience are also welcome to join the interactive discussion.
