Now in its second year, the Digital Video Awards celebrate excellence, creativity and innovation across digital-first production and distribution.

This year’s shortlist reflects the rapid evolution of the sector, with categories covering AI-driven production, microdrama, sport, news, women’s channels and digital catalogue exploitation. Competition is expected to be particularly strong in Studio of the Year, while channel and format categories showcase the breadth of content being created across platforms including YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and FAST services.
The ceremony will be hosted by Specs Gonzalez, whose career across short-form comedy, podcasting and social content reflects the awards’ focus on digital-native talent and creators shaping the future of entertainment.
Around 100 shortlisted entries from broadcasters, studios and digital-first producers will compete on the night, with companies represented including ITV Studios, Channel 4’s 4Studio, BBC, Banijay Entertainment and Hearst Networks, alongside a wide range of pioneering producers and creators.
Entries were judged by industry experts – recognising achievements in storytelling, audience engagement and creative execution across digital platforms, while the Unsung Hero award once again highlights standout behind-the-scenes talent.
