Lights, camera, cross-cultural action! 🎬 Joel Hynek, the American visual effects supervisor judging TV dramas at this year’s Golden Panda Awards in Chengdu, China, is head over heels for the event’s cultural diversity. “That’s one of the great things about the Golden Panda Awards – the mix of cultures and the learning we gain through the variety of TV shows,” he told CGTN’s Zhang Meng.
On his first trip to Chengdu, Joel couldn’t hide his excitement. “I might even consider moving here!” he laughed, praising not just the scale and organization of the ceremony but also the city’s vibrant spirit.
Looking ahead, Hynek says he can’t wait for next year’s awards. In a world where creative collaboration knows no borders, the Golden Panda Awards are proving that storytelling truly thrives when cultures come together. 🌏✨
