As winner of the RTS Young Technologist of the Year for 2023, she will receive an all-expenses paid trip to IBC 2023.
Chair of the RTS Young Technologist of the Year Award Jury, Terry Marsh, said: “Tatjana’s rapid rise at Sky since joining the company less than two years ago is hugely inspiring. She has demonstrated an excellent grasp of both the production requirements and the technology involved, whilst also devising improvements to the technology, all of which was very impressive to the Jury. We had a high volume of entries for 2023, which made for some difficult decisions to choose the finalists, all of whom are doing remarkable things in their careers so far.”
Radivoj added: “I am delighted to receive this award and would like to thank Terry Marsh and the jury for selecting me as Young Technologist of the Year. I would also like to thank my colleagues at Sky Post and my family for supporting me in my career, and for all the knowledge and skills they have helped me gain. It’s an exciting time in audio post production, and I look forward to furthering my career and contributing to the future of technology in television.”
