The Rory Peck Awards 2003 was made possible by...

  • The judging panels whose serious and respectful deliberations resulted in a formidable group of finalists. We are especially grateful to the panel chairs: Thomas Roth (The Sony International Impact Award), Richard Tait (The Rory Peck Award for Hard News) and Sheena McDonald (The Rory Peck Award for Features).

  • Channel 4 Television and Sony Europe GmbH who hosted the judging and provided viewing facilities.

  • Sarah Ward-Lilley (Managing Editor, BBC Newsgathering). Producing the awards in her spare time, Sarah puts together and motivates a wonderful team of professionals from across the industry who work on an entirely voluntary basis to make this event happen. For this, we thank: Globecast and BSkyB for providing technical resources, BBC News Resources and ITN /Channel 4 News.

  • Colin Vinton and Neon who provided the OB trucks that transformed the whole production.

  • Reuters TV and Lyndee Prickitt who filmed the awards, producing and distributing the highlights.

  • APTN who sponsored the awards brochure and provided our picture editor, Sergio Fusi.

  • CBS News, NBC News, Channel 4 News/ITN and Rhys Williams who all sponsored tickets for freelancers.

  • Fenella Henderson who organised the event and her front of house team with such gusto.

  • Finally our very special thanks go to our great and supportive Sony team headed up by Cameron Van Ast, Tiziana Tedoldi, Chris Preston, Tim Court and Geoff Titcombe.
