World Press Photo Multimedia 2011…watch this space..

Just as I was beginning to think I was not going to get a response from Amsterdam regarding the lack of a multimedia category, ( it’s not like they’ve got much to do at this time of year…) I got a short and sweet answer from Michiel Munneke, Managing Director himself.

He explains that WPP are very supportive of multimedia, such as their support for the Twenty Ten project for African journalists, and that, and here’s the exclusive…2010 will see the foundation “developing a plan for how to accommodate multimedia in the annual contest”

That sounds to me like the 2011 contest will allow multimedia entries, which is great news.

I’m going to have to get Ben one of those lovely scarves, like.
