I am happy and honoured winning 10 awards this year at the biggest visual journalism competition in the world, “SND – Best of News Design Competition” with Bild am Sonntag. For me, this is one more proof that it is possible to bring “news design” to a popular newspaper language.
This year 4 of the awards went for Breaking News pages. Working around the clock to cover a major news event, looking for the right visual impact for it — especially one that involves so much death and suffering, takes a physical and emotional toll on ourselves. On the other hand, the challenge of breaking news coverage brings each journalist to their limits, proving our creative capacity and passion for our profession.
Here are all the winning categories and pages:
