Established in 1996, the Asian Television Awards has evolved over the years in tandem with changes to the broadcast and content industry. Commencing this year, the Awards has expanded its categories to include a section focusing on short form video, music videos, and short films. This is in addition to its traditional sections on broadcast programming, performance, and technical categories.

The Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) is the national film agency under the Office of the President of the Philippines responsible for film policies and programs to ensure the economic, cultural, and educational development of the Philippine film industry.
