Hong Kong — TIME, the world’s leading weekly news magazine that reaches over 60 million readers, has announced the winners of its “Submit Your World” video contest. In a world of constantly fragmenting media and ubiquitous technology that fights for our attention in every moment of the day. The contest was created to remind people about the importance of staying connected to the world, and also encourage them to express their opinions and share them with others in a constructive manner.

Readers from all across the Asia-Pacific region participated, with a strong showing from the Philippines and Indonesia, which represented 50% of the submissions. Other countries and territories that saw high numbers of submissions were Malaysia, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand. World Affairs was the most pressing concern on readers’ minds, as it was, by far, the topic most covered in submissions. Culture, Entertainment and Ideas were the other most popular video subjects.

The panel of judges was comprised of esteemed members of TIME’s Asia-Pacific Editorial, Production, Consumer Marketing and Circulation teams, Mr. Zoher Abdoolcarim, Mr. Nelson Luk, Mr. Rick Kam and Ms. Susie Pattison. Entries were evaluated based on four categories:

  • Originality, Overall Video Concept
  • Relevance to the Theme set by TIME magazine which Is “Submit Your World”
  • The Story and Message behind the Video
  • Audience Appeal: the total votes received

After all of the evaluations and online votes were tallied, there were 5 “Grand Winners” chosen, along with a “Top 30” group of runners up.

Each of the 5 Grand Winners will receive a 108-issue TIME Magazine All Access (print + digital) subscription, PLUS an Apple iPad Air 2. All of the Top 30 runners up will receive a 54-issue TIME Magazine Digital-only subscription.

In a statement the panel of judges said, “All award winners were very creative. The videos they submitted reflects their world, or what interests them on their side of it. Each had a unique message or story behind it. All were engaging. Contestants clearly understood how to create content that would engage with TIME readers and would be optimal for sharing. Some of the entries were very, very popular among online voters. We were really blown away by the number of impressive entries, and their engagement is really encouraging.”
