TikTok Awards LATAM 2025
TV Production / Show Operations / Live Broadcast
Executive summary
Live television. One coordinated show operation.
The TikTok Awards LATAM 2025 brought Latin America’s creator community together for a live, digital-first celebration in Mexico City.
Agustín Gutiérrez served as TV Producer and Operations Director across three connected production environments: the Creators Awards—the main TikTok Awards show—the Brand Awards and the Red Carpet.
Project
Three formats
One production conversation.
Creators Awards
The main TikTok Awards show: a live celebration designed for TikTok’s Latin American creator community.
Brand Awards
A dedicated awards format with its own editorial and show logic, connected to the wider production operation.
Red Carpet
The live arrival and interview environment that opened the audience experience before the main ceremony.
Role & responsibility
Production leadership where creative and operations meet.
- Television production leadership.
- Show operations across the Creators Awards, Brand Awards and Red Carpet.
- Budget estimation and production management.
- Crew and vendor coordination.
- Rehearsal and live delivery planning.
- Coordination of creative, technical, broadcast and operational teams.
The complete B2B experiences were outside Agustín’s remit. The B2B elements integrated into the show and the broadcast were developed, directed and coordinated within the television production framework.
Production approach
A creative idea needs an operating system.
The work was not simply to deliver three separate formats. It was to build a clear structure around them: responsibilities, budgets, teams, technical interfaces, rehearsals, cues and live decision-making.
That structure protected the creative intent while giving every department the information and conditions needed to perform.
About the event

The fourth edition of the TikTok Awards took place on January 30, 2025, in Mexico City. TikTok’s official announcement described a live broadcast through @tiktoklatam, beginning with the Red Carpet and continuing into an awards ceremony spanning 13 categories.
