ONE CLICK, ALL INFORMATION

The Asian Film Awards Academy's (AFAA) website was redesigned and reorganized.

27 February 2023

The Asian Film Awards Academy’s (AFAA) website was redesigned and reorganized. The enhanced and user-friendly website enables visitors to learn more about AFAA news, the Asian Film Awards (AFA), and other programs.

The website’s straightforward navigation bar allowed visitors to browse the entire site upon clicking in. The five columns NEWS, AWARDS, PROGRAMS, ACADEMY, and SPONSOR, along with the sub-menu, helped AFAA clarify its function and made it convenient for users to navigate what AFAA offers. The site offers fans the chance to experience AFA and AFAA events and features over 3000 photographs, covering 15 years’ collection of AFA highlights.

The updated webpage not only presents our history, ongoing program, and significant moments in an effective manner, and also allows both these potential stakeholders, AFA fans, and others to have a pleasant and enjoyable site visit. Likewise, the mobile-friendly version enables users to access our website using a variety of applications. Our site is available at any time and from any location regardless of the device.

Highlights include:

AFA: Asian Film Awards as our year-round events and programs, “Celebrating Excellence in Asian Cinema,” we view the AFA timeline as our landmark, which includes each year’s event highlights, significant moments, interviews, winners, and nominees. Here, users can view all the information with a click.
Programs: AFAA holds a variety of programs to honor excellence in Asian cinema and cultivate the next generation. Examples include the Masterclass Series, Journey to the Fest, Asian Cinerama, Young Film Professional Program, and Film Craft Workshop. In our program section, visitors can explore information about our past, present, and future programs. You might also find Mabel Cheung, Stanley Kwan Fruit Chan, and more famous conversation in the Masterclass!
News: Stay informed of the most recent AFAA and AFA news and look for opportunities to have an unforgettable experience with AFAA and AFA.
Events Timeline: Under the Academy section, visitors can review AFAA’s annual accomplishments.
Gift & Premiums: Keep an eye on our souvenirs! We will continue to create more collectible gift editions for you!

The AFAA website was designed and developed to provide visitors with an immersive experience. Here, you can easily navigate the AFAA website without missing any information. In the upcoming years, AFAA will launch additional programs as well as provide updates, so please keep an eye on us. Correspondingly, without the support of Create Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Film Development Fund of the Hong Kong SAR Government, AFAA would be unable to offer a wide range of programs, achieve its objectives of fostering the next generation, and play a crucial role in promoting Asian films.

The list of AFA nominees will be announced on January 6, AFAA invites you to follow our social media pages for the latest updates on the 16th Asian Film Awards!
