JCS International president Michal Grayevsky presented the first-ever JCS International young Creatives Award at the 2017 International Emmy World Television Festival in New York.
The three winners – Eisa Alhabib of Kuwait, Ewing Luo of China and Roberto Pino Almeyda of Chile – each created exceptional one-minute short videos on the theme of women peacemakers.
The ceremony was held during the traditional annual nominee Medal Ceremony for the 2017 International Emmy Awards nominees.
“Today, we celebrate three young creatives whose work promotes peace across the globe – and the women who make it all possible,” said Grayevsky. “We are so thankful to the International Academy for their extraordinary work. This first year was superb, and we look forward to partnering for many years to come.” The award was open to contestants from around the world, between the ages of 18 and 29. Three winners were selected based on the criteria of concept, execution, character development and creativity.
