AUSTRALIA: Røde Microphones’ Stereo VideoMic Pro on-camera microphone was recently recognised as being ‘one of the best designed products of the year’ by the Australian International Design Awards at a recent black-tie presentation event in Sydney.
The Stereo VideoMic Pro was chosen as one of the select Design Award recipients from amongst a list of more than 200 products, which ranged from semi-trailer trucks and espresso coffee machines.
A judging panel of 24 international design experts assessed the product across all disciplines of design, who found it to excel across all criteria including form, function, quality, safety, sustainability and innovation. The panel noted that the microphone is a ‘competent, well integrated device with a novel suspension system and improved lifecycle’.
Accepting the award was Røde’s VP of product design and new product development Peter Cooper, alongside lead product designers Sam Trewartha and Lisa Gyecsek.
‘We’re very proud to receive this award,’ said Mr Cooper. ‘The team have designed a fantastic product and it’s great to have that acknowledged by the judges.’
