Nominees for the 2016 Screen Nation Digital-iS Media Awards have been announced. Set up to recognise black British excellence and innovation in digital media, the awards return for its third year on Sunday 11th December at the luxurious The May Fair Hotel. This year, it will be hosted by urban stars of the moment Joivan Wade, Percelle ‘Percy’ Ascott and Dee Kaate of BBC3’s The JPD Show

The Digital-iS Media Awards highlights the new born media maker who can wake up, write, cast, crew and fund a project online, record and edit with a mobile device, launch a YouTube channel to distribute the content, design a blog to publicise their work and find an audience via any one of a number of social networks such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Periscope and more. With the constant debate about the lack of inclusion across mainstream media channels, the Screen Nation Digital is Media Awards is a great way to provide emerging voices with a platform that recognises and rewards the wealth of talent succeeding in the digital arena. 

Nominees for this year include Breakthrough Brit Kayode Ewumi, BWNG TV series How Did We Get Here, Cecile Emeke's Wilton and comedians A Dot Comedian and Tommy Moutchi. This year's Digital Vanguard honourees are lifestyle bloggers Samantha Maria and Patricia Bright, who have transformed their hobbies into a brand. The Digital Achievement awards go to Steven Bartlett, founder of uber-successful marketing agency Social Chain and tech entrepreneurs Timothy Armoo & Ambroke Cooke.
