The television producers Valerio Crivelli from Lugano and Michel Demierre from Geneva have been awarded the 2006 Catholic Media Prize by the Swiss Bishops' Conference (SBC).

In this role, he took special care in realizing church service broadcasts as a planner, consultant and even celebrant.

He has created the broadcaster's liturgical broadcasts with exceptional expertise and careful timing of images, sounds and liturgical action.
