The Annual Loerie Awards 2012

Loerie Awards 2012 Large

SABC takes pride to once again be the broadcast partner of the 34th annual Loerie Awards, themed, “Viva African Creativity.Viva!” This is regarded as the most prestigious brand communication awards on the continent and will take place during Creative Week Cape Town, which runs from 15 – 23 September 2012.

The National Public Service Broadcaster has over the years supported The Loerie Awards through its various platforms to nurture, celebrate and showcase South African creativity.

The SABC will once again be sponsoring the New Voice Award which supports the development of black creative talent, promoting creativity in all South African languages, raising the standard of vernacular creative work in South Africa and rewarding vernacular creative excellence.

The bronze award winner in this category will be awarded advertising airtime to the value of R40 000 for any of the winning agency’s clients, the silver award winner will receive airtime to the value of R60 000 and the gold award winner will walk away with advertising airtime to the value of R100 000.

The SABC also sponsors the Electronic Media Awards evening. Recognised as the Oscars of the Creative Industry, the awards ceremony is the highlight of the year and recognises all areas of brand communication.

SABC Group Executive Commercial Enterprises, AntonHeunis, commented on the continued partnership: “We are proudto be partnering with The Loerie Awards yet again. Our relationship dates back to 1978. The objective then was to inspire the improvement of the quality of television creative work. That objective is as pertinent now, as it was back then” he continued.

“We acknowledge with a deep sense of pride and appreciation, the immense value the South African Creative Industry has added to our business and look forward to engaging with our communications partners in the future."

SABC Radio broadcasts on average between 55 000 and 60 000 advertisements per month and the number increases to approximately 70 000 in peak season. SABC TV broadcasts on average between ten and twelve thousand advertisements per month. All of that belongs to the Creative Industry. This underscores the importance of the Industry to the SABC.

In simple terms, the more creative the advertisements, the higher the flighting frequency, which in turn translates into increased revenues. Further down the value chain clients end up with greater brand awareness, increased volumes of commercial activity and thriving businesses. It all starts with the creative process.” Mr. Heunis concluded.
