My very pregnant wife handing out one of the awards

When I wrote my blog post yesterday about the 2009 Tudou Video Festival I did not include any video footage of the award ceremony yet. Today I looked for and found a couple of short festival video’s on Tudou. This one gives a short impression of the festival, this one was shot before the festival started and this one gives a 5 minute overview of the award ceremony, including some of the speeches.

If you want to see some pictures, I created a set of some of my own (and of a few of Tudou CTO Michael Zhao’s) pictures here. Some more festival pictures, taken by Flickr user Dexteryy, can be found here.

There were also tons of articles in the Chinese press, see among others here, here, here and here.
