Airport threatens Loeries from roosting in Margate[Suren Naidoo] Margate wants the Loeries Awards extravaganza to roost in the town, but KwaZulu-Natal's new international airport at La Mercy, north of Durban, could see the South Coast hot spot losing the big event in 2010. That's because when the new airport opens in 2010, it will take more than two hours for Loerie Award delegates - more than 80% from Johannesburg and Cape Town - to drive from the new airport to Margate. 31 Jul 2008 11:16 Frieze Films features at The Loeries - Frieze Films

Twenty-five-year-old Darren Cronje has won the Loeries 2008 Young Creatives Award and, with it, an all-expenses-paid trip to the One Show in New York - and the Student Judging Panel for the Loeries was announced yesterday, Monday 1 June 2009. 
The Seven Deadly Sins edition of Migrate, The Loerie Awards magazine, is available this December, showcasing a compilation of some of the best writing, illustration and photography that the industry has to offer.

A recommendation by Velocity Films executive producer, Peter Carr, saw Be Phat Motel Film Company approached early in 2008 to produce a series of visuals for this year's 30th anniversary Loerie Awards ceremony, specifically the six musical performances. Be Phat Motel is an up-and-coming collaboration between a number of young South African industry professionals. 
This year's Loeries judges awarded the TV Grand Prix to the craftsmanship and masterful storytelling of Allan Gray 'Beautiful'. The commercial was conceptualised by agency King James and directed by Keith Rose of Velocity. 
The Velocity party by the pool at Margate last weekend for the 30th annual Loeries was its usual rockin' self. Sweat.x got those feet tapping and all those folks going down brown, whilet the girls in tight lycra introduced everyone to Jose and the boys in gold shorts and painted toenails shook their well-formed booties. 
Frieze Films directors Tony Baggott and Steve Tanchel projects picked up Loerie awards this past weekend: Baggott notched up two Bronzes, one each for Audi and KFC 'Love Notes'; while Tanchel won a Bronze for Soweto Rugby Club. His MTN 'Snapshots' commercial, which he directed for Metropolitan Republic, picked up a Gold editing craft.
