Canon unveils 19 EOS Masters

Canon announced its new initiative titled “EOS Master” for 2023, with a line-up of exclusively-handpicked camera advocates, whose craftsmanship in the field of visual storytelling will be the portal for aspiring creative professionals to interactively engage.

A signing ceremony was held on 5 January 2023 at Golden Screen Cinemas, Mid Valley Megamall to officiate the EOS Master 2023 announcement. Canon’s 19 EOS Masters 2023 who were unveiled at the ceremony, will now play an instrumental role in leading Canon’s passion towards contributing to the local development of talents in the creative scenes.

Shunji Yoshikai, President and Chief Executive Officer of Canon Marketing Malaysia extended his gratitude to the Canon team for searching and carefully selecting the 19 EOS Masters as advocates to closely work with Canon in 2023.

They were selected based on different levels of experience, including their talent-engaging influence in the community, and for their united passion and unique flair in pushing the boundaries of compelling visual storytelling skills.

A range of workshops, seminars, and exhibitions will be hosted with these notable individuals, who have captivated their audience with their wealth of experience. This effort will inspire and empower cinematographers and shutterbugs at all levels of competency.

It will also gives an opportunity for professional videographers and the general public to upskill or reskill themselves either in their pursuit for a career progression or for their personal interests in the entertainment and content creation industry in Malaysia.
