VANCOUVER, April 26 /CNW/ - The Just Ask Baby Show has been selected as an Official Honoree for the Best Reality/Variety Host category in The 14th Annual Webby Awards.
The Webby Awards is the Internet's most respected symbol of success, receiving nearly 10,000 entries from all 50 states and over 60 countries worldwide; less than 15% are awarded the status of Official Honorees. According to The Los Angeles Times, the Webby Awards "is the only award show for Internet sites that matters."
Winners are chosen by the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences a global organization whose members include Internet inventor Vinton Cerf, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, Virgin Group Chairman Richard Branson, and R/GA Chairman and CEO Bob Greenberg. Winners are selected for recognition based on excellence in website content structure and navigation, visual design, functionality, interactivity and overall experience, in addition to video concept and writing.
"We are thrilled to have been selected! This is an outstanding achievement for the entire Just Ask Baby production team," says Just Ask Baby's VP of Marketing Michelle Hamilton.
Teaming up with Vancouver-based Go 2 Productions Inc., Just Ask Baby created "The Just Ask Baby Show." As one of the core elements of the website, the show currently consists of over 60 high-speed, high definition, informative videos that can be watched online at the convenience of the viewer.
Go 2 Productions Inc. was responsible for creating the show concept, scripting, on camera talent, shooting, post production and final output for all 60 episodes.
"We are very thankful to be recognized by such a prestigious organization. We truly hope these videos will give parents the help they need to better understand how their babies are thinking and feeling at such a tender age. It was great fun to shoot these cute little babies, juggling the shooting around their nap times and feeding schedules," says Go 2 Productions CEO Ross Huguet.
In the style of late-night TV, and filmed from a baby's perspective, The Just Ask Baby Show's real life 9-month-old talk show host Joey's dry humor, wit and clever insight make this show truly unique. As Joey, the show's dominant presence chats with his adorable baby friends, they tell the story of how babies grow and develop in the first year of life - completely from a baby's perspective.
