The Wales Media Awards, organised by the Wales Committee of the Journalists’ Charity, celebrate excellence in journalism, storytelling and media across Wales, bringing together publishers, broadcasters and creatives from across the nation. The event carries a strong sense of responsibility — recognising not just technical achievement, but the role media plays in reflecting and shaping life in Wales.
Candid Creative Studio supported the 2025 awards through event branding and presentation design, creating a visual system that felt confident, respectful and contemporary. The work focused on clarity and consistency across on-the-night materials, ensuring nominees, finalists and winners were presented with care and credibility in a live setting.
Visual assets were designed to scale across formats and to sit comfortably alongside future editions, helping build a recognisable and trusted awards identity over time. The result was a considered event presence that supported the tone of the evening and reinforced the standing of the awards within Wales’ media landscape.
Why consistency matters for events
Strong event branding isn’t just about how something looks on the night — it’s about building recognition and trust year on year. A clear, well-structured visual system allows awards to grow, evolve and remain credible without needing to reinvent themselves each time.
