The Music And Sound Awards Hand Out Their 2014 Gongs

Last night saw a handful of the most melodious members of the entertainment community honoured at the annual Music+Sound Awards in London. Brands including John Lewis, Marks And Spencer and Audi, along with agencies Wieden + Kennedy and BBH, were amongst the successful recipients of the gongs which honour the indispensable role and outstanding contribution that music and sound design play in the world of visual media.
 
Presented during an exciting ceremony at London's Troxy, the show (media partnered with SourceEcreative) looked at professionals working in film, television branding and programming, advertising and gaming, and were open to anyone who is or has been involved in the creation, composition, sourcing, licensing, briefing and / or production of music and sound design for any visual media broadcast or released in the UK.


 
Nick Payne, co-founder, says, "It was months in the planning and The Music + Sound Awards 2014 was truly a night to remember. The work entered this year was of a very high standard and seeing the winners rewarded for their brilliance was a phenomenal thing to be part of.  We congratulate them for their outstanding achievements and for inspiring the visual media industries with their exceptional work."
