Creative industry driving mother-tongue communication
Pendoring Awards 2018, jury president, Xolisa Dyeshana said: “Whether we realise this or not, the work we've seen is the future. The work that is going to be produced in SA is going to be significantly different from the work of yesteryear.”
SABC head of marketing, Siphelele Sixaso, who was the specialist radio judge said: “It makes me so happy to see the creative industry drive mother-tongue communication.” Sixaso, added: “The work we were privileged to judge is inspiring to a whole new level, it's world-class! This is truly the only way to speak to the hearts and minds of South African consumers.”
