The V&A Channel is conceived both as a home for the museum’s growing output of digital films and as a ‘must-see’ portal to the world’s leading art and design museum and its highly popular website. V&A Channel draws on the entertaining and intelligent brand values of V&A magazine, its successful print equivalent. It extends the magazine formula into an experiential and compelling on-line destination for a culturally-aware, world-wide on-line audience.
V&A Channel’s exciting and ever-changing output of high-quality films features exciting and film previews of forthcoming V&A exhibitions, exclusive ‘on-location’ interviews with top designers, private view films featuring leading cultural movers and shakers and live global broadcasts of fashion shows and other exciting museum events.
Contributors to V&A Channel’s diverse and compelling output over its first nine months have included Kevin Spacey, Tracy Chevalier, Rebecca Hall, Joan Collins, Sam West, Erin O’Connor, Jacqueline Wilson, Erdem, David Dimbleby, Waldemar Janusczcak, Stephen Jones and many more.
