At Traverse 19 we hosted our first ever Traverse Creator Awards. The inaugural ceremony was a great success, held in the beautiful venue MART. <\/strong><\/p>\n

We had over over 500 entries for these awards and we saw many incredible entries. These awards were extra special to us as they involved no public voting and were skill specific. So often, awards are about how many votes you can get, becoming a popularity contest rather than an actual recognition of hard work and talent. We gathered a group of creators, experts and those who work on a daily basis with creators to form the judging panel. So without further ado, here are all the winners and the winning entries for the first ever Traverse Creator Awards.<\/span><\/p>\n

International Women\u2019s Day <\/strong><\/p>\n

An interesting and thoughtful exploration of varied women from around the world, highlighting that ‘inspirational women’ in the sense of travel doesn’t always mean the women posing and posting on Instagram, but that there are many iterations of achievement. This piece showcases nine different women and their stories in one parent page, featuring women from Romania, Yemen, USA, Japan, UAE, Tunisia, Kenya, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

Best Video Cinematic <\/i><\/b>Emiliano Bechi Gabrielli – Emi Seven Media <\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n

Catalan ‘Human Towers’<\/strong><\/p>\n

The video was shot, edited and graded by Emiliano. It started as a documentary project, with the idea of collecting footage over a year and many exhibitions to make a short film. But after a couple of events and one interview with the leader of this little group called Marrecs de Salt, he realised he had enough good footage to create a compelling video about the Catalan tradition of “human towers”, to let the viewer feel the adrenaline right in the middle of the action, the tension and excitement, to tell the story of these fearless men and women.<\/span><\/p>\n
