This year's face of the Golden Orange: Ebru Akel

Ebru Akel has become the face of the Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival, of which the 47th will be staged this year, between 9 - 14 October. Ebru Akel has posed in the posters which have been visualised by the world famous graphic designer Emrah Yücel.

THE SPIRIT OF THE MEDITERRENEAN IS REFLECTED WITH EBRU AKEL

Ebru Akel has become the face of this year's International Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival, which is to be staged for the 47th time, with the support of the Antalya Metropolitan Council, and is being organised by the Antalya Kültür Sanat Vakfı (AKSAV). The meeting held at the Antalya Kültür Merkezi was attended by Prof. Dr. Mustafa Akaydın, Mayor of Antalya and also the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Antalya Kültür Sanat Vakfı, Göksel Kumsal, the General Coordinator of the Golden Orange Festival, and by members of the Board of Directors of AKSAV. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Akaydın explained the reason for choosing Ebru Akel as follows: "Ebru Akel has a very Mediterrenean face. As her career is on the up, and she has experience presenting awards ceremonies, she is a star we have wanted to work with for a long time. Emrah Yücel also chose to work with her in respect of the design of the poster. Ebru Akel also has a face which is well suited to the concept of the poster."

THE BLUENESS OF THE MEDITERRENEAN, THE BEAUTY OF VENUS

Akaydın also explained the concept of this year's poster as follows: "We see Akel as a mermaid in this year's poster. She is presenting the magical orange which she has in her hand, to us, with a smiling face. It is a fantastic, magical and almost extraordinary world, with the identity of a figure which is rising up out of the Antalya sea. Yücel has also proposed that the concept of the stage setting for the awards ceremony be the same."
