nomination announcement will be hosted by Stargist presenters, the beautiful
Vimbai and her amiable co-host, Lawrence in a live broadcast.

presenters, funny girl Helen Paul and the dapper looking Uti Nwanchukwu to host

While the award organisers hoped for a higher number of entries for the
2014 edition, submissions have so far exceeded expectations. Entries
for the awards scheduled to have closed on 18th October was extended to 1st November 2013, as
TV and film practitioners across the continent submitted entries in droves. Hundreds
of entries have so far been received across Africa, showing a high level of participation, which also confirms
the success of the maiden edition.
The judging panel which convened in Johannesburg, South Africa to lend its
expertise to the nominations process was led by film maker and documentary
veteran, Femi Odugbemi, who in a media session explained in detail, the level
of professionalism and dedication the judging panel exhibited through out the
process.
Joining the AfricaMagic family on stage to reveal the nominations and add
colour to this wonderful event are some of the big names in Africa’s TV &
film.
